Nancy: If I understand you correctly you're using your "client" PC to ftp the file. I believe you can direct the ftp output like:
CMD = "FTP -s:\\OURSERVER1\Flatfile\FTP.EXPORT\ftpscript1.txt > C:\FtpTransfer.txt" I do this in backup scripts on various servers that email the results to me. So, theoretically, you could set up the script on the Windows server (if you're using Windows), or on a Linux server, to do the same thing without using AccuTerm.

It always shows up exactly like I want. But I need to capture the results so I can automate it (just in case it doesn't go). The Basic program (AccuTerm) DOSSVC uses this syntax: EQU ESC TO CHAR(27) EQU STX TO CHAR(2) EQU CR TO CHAR(13) PRINT ESC:STX:'<':CMD:CR The command is: CMD = "FTP -s:\\OURSERVER1\Flatfile\FTP.EXPORT\ftpscript1.txt" and the ftpscript1.txt is: open ftp.somesite.com ourusername ourpassword ascii cd / send \\OURSERVER1\Flatfile\OURCLIENT\FILETOSEND.EDI bye I don't know if I need to know DOS/FTP or BASIC or AccuTerm syntax to return the result of the transfer absolutely ANYWHERE (variable or file). I am practically clueless on DOS/FTP and have struggled to get this far. Since I can send the file I am very frustrated at not being able to manage the result. I have tried the AccuTerm forum...and no luck so far. We are on Windows/UniVerse. thanks, Nancy [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
