Problems With My First Script

[xircon 0]

Hi Guys,

Trying to write my first script to access my unix box via ftp. the script is as follows:

$answer = InputBox("File Transfer", "Enter Name of File required : ")

FileOpen ( "ftp.ftp", 2 )

FileWriteline( "ftp.ftp", "root" )

FileWriteline( "ftp.ftp", "secret" )

FileWriteline( "ftp.ftp", "cd /u/foxbase/data" )

FileWriteline( "ftp.ftp", "binary" )

FileWriteline( "ftp.ftp", "get " & $answer )

FileWriteline( "ftp.ftp", "quit" )

fileclose("ftp.ftp")

RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c " & 'ftp -s:ftp.ftp 192.168.1.200', "", @SW_HIDE)

exit

But it seems to loop and re-open itself over and over until cancelled, any ideas?

Thanks

Steve

did you call your script FTP.AU3 ?

Yes - have I done something dozy??

Rename it to MYFTP.AU3 and compile it...

You are starting your own script everytime in stead of the FTP program from microsoft...
