[RESOLVED] INET Control Resolving Spaces In Directory Name

[ADF-Sniper]

Hi All,

I am having issues with Inet and CD into the remote directory with space in the directory name. Please keep in mind that I can not change the name of the directory.

'afolder = "Amay Karting"
Inet1.Execute , "CD /GameData/Locations/" & afolder
Inet1.Execute , "DIR"

I have been trying to resolve this issue for a few weeks.

If there is no solution I use ezftp.ocx. If I can be showen how to get a directory listing going for that ill get rid of inet control.

If anyone knows the solution to this issue, could you please be a big help

Regards
Nathum

AFAIK
CD uses virtual directories not physical
the syntax is "CD virtual directory name"
following your post (assuming that they are virtual, I should use next way

Inet1.Execute , "CD GameData"
Inet1.Execute , "CD Locations"
Inet1.Execute , "CD " &  afolder & Chr(34)

Hi I tried that and did not work.

I have also tried %20%

(000594) 24/03/2009 12:34:01 PM - rfserver1 (122.111.168.58)> CWD /GameData/Locations/Amay%20%Karting
(000594) 24/03/2009 12:34:01 PM - rfserver1 (122.111.168.58)> 550 CWD failed. "/GameData/Locations/Amay%20%Karting": directory not found.

I have also tried putting the Chr(34) infront and end of the string as suggested in some forums and no result.

Thanks
Nath

Try this...

I am doing this from the top of my head

'afolder = "Amay Karting"
afolder = Chr(34) & "Amay Karting" & Chr(34)

or this

Sub Test()
    afolder = "Amay Karting"
    bfolder = "/GameData/Locations/" & afolder
    Ret = "CD """ & bfolder & """"
    MsgBox Ret
End Sub

Hi Kool,

I tried that before and now. That did not work

afolder = Chr(34) & "Amay Karting" & Chr(34)

Inet1.Execute , "CD /GameData/Locations/" & afolder
Do While Inet1.StillExecuting
DoEvents
Loop
Inet1.Execute , "DIR"
Do While Inet1.StillExecuting
DoEvents
Loop

I just edited the above post... how about the second code?

[ADF-Sniper]

Sub Test()
    afolder = "Amay Karting"
    bfolder = "/GameData/Locations/" & afolder
    Ret = "CD """ & bfolder & """"
    MsgBox Ret
End Sub

My result is....

"CD "/GameData/Locations/Amay Karting""

I used that and inet loops.... Inet1.StillExecuting

Thanks
Nathum

Did you try something like this?

Private Sub Command2_Click()
    afolder = "Amay Karting"
    bfolder = "/GameData/Locations/" & afolder
    Ret = "CD """ & bfolder & """"
    Inet1.Execute , Ret
End Sub
