Oh yeah.... Note: For anything more complex than simple space-delimited parameters to CFEXECUTE it's much safer to use an array to pass the parameters. You have to parse the string into argv form, but the array is copied element-by-element into argv with no munging.

I need to call FTP and then a -s command with a command file. So far I've got: <CFEXECUTE NAME="C:\WINNT\system32\cmd.exe" ARGUMENTS="ftp -s:c:\path\to\file\ftpcommands.txt"> </CFEXECUTE> This does not work. If I call it just like this from the command line, it works fine. Any suggestions?
