Bugger! I was hoping you weren't going to say that Sean. It's a supplier of information to us, and about 50 other users access the same ftp site with their own folders, so they can't change the folder structure just for us. Oh the delights of XML and Web services - if they provided it to us that way it would have cost my client a lot less and been done weeks ago.
However this is what we have to live with and I'm using CF5 for this job. Looks like I'll have to write a batch file and use the command shell to ftp the file in. It works that way when I do it manually. Pity, I was hoping to do it all inside a single CF template. Jeez. It's years since I did any batch file stuff in DOS. Anyone still know where there's a DOS manual??

Hmm, it converts the \ to a / when it executes. That's a pain. Looks like you'll have to get them to change the pathname to not contain spaces... Of course, on *nix systems, folks know better than to create pathnames with spaces in so these problems don't occur :) Sean A Corfield -- http://www.corfield.org/blog/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood --- You are currently subscribed to cfaussie as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] MXDU2004 + Macromedia DevCon AsiaPac + Sydney, Australia http://www.mxdu.com/ + 24-25 February, 2004
