Frank,
It looked like it worked, but I didn't receive any files.
The action showed that it found all the files for my customer, but they are
not on my hard drive???
This is my actual command:
mget duns129868217.cmp.*

Just a wild thought.. Ask the submitter of the files (server owner) to
store only those that should be picked up in the "pickup" directory.
Then do an ftp and get *.*
I'll check over here if you can do a get *.* with ftp.

Hi Albert,
The problem was trying to use a wild card for the 3rd component. If I
specify the full filename, then I receive it ok. But the problem is
that the third component is a datetime value, and I have no way of
knowing this unless they tell me in advance, which they don't.
If anyone has any ideas how to handle this situation, I would certainly
appreciate it?

Try quoting the file name anyway, just to see what happens. I have had
"fun" sometimes with file names with multiple "."s in any number of
programs. Never tried with R:Base, though. I am sure my first time
will come soon ...

Bernie, have you quoted the file name?
"this file name"

I am FTPing to downlaod a file with a 3 component name and I get
illegal file name.
Can Win XP handle a 3 component file name?
or is it an R:Base problem as I am launching the ftp from rbase.
Or is it possible thru ftp commands to rename the file before it
gets installed?
