What? Are the commands wrong or do you not know how to create an FTP file?

I think I posted the solution before for you?

You need to use a script for the ftp login as the bat file will not process any other lines after the initial FTP one. so it will never get to the login credentials.


'Command prompt code to execute:
ftp -s:c:\ftpscript.bat

'Your script file (c:\ftpscript.bat) contents:
@echo off
ftp ftp.members.lycos.co.uk
User yourusername

Pwd 8888888

binary

get Code.rar
:done

This part would be in VB or typed in to the Run dialog box. Depends on how you want to execute this?

'Run Dialog box or Command window -
FTP -s:c:\ftpscript.bat'VB -
Shell "cmd.exe FTP -s:c:\ftpscript.bat"
