[trademaid]

HOW CAN i write a script that I can right click a file in windows explorer, and say send it to a ftp server.

I can do the ftp bit, but dont know how to do the right click part

Take a look at shell extentions. Let me dig up and example for you.

EDIT: Can't Find it... I know its here somewhere.

Hi,

There is an updated version. Good job on fixing it, I completely forgot about Send To....

Hah,

For those wondering, here is the code for adding a program into registry send to.

GLOBAL $PATH = @UserProfileDir & "\SendTo";Don't Change
GLOBAL $INPUT = "D:\My Documents\Reg2Au3.exe"; Full path to program you want.
GLOBAL $NAME = "New Program"
Global $ARGS = ""; Any extra arguments for the file.  Leave as-is for no args.
Global $ICON = ""; Leave as-is to keep icon default.
Global $ICON_N = 0; Icon instance.

Global $HOTKEY = ""; Probably just leave blank
Global $STATE = ""; State to launch program in.
FileCreateShortcut ($INPUT, $PATH & "\" & $NAME, "", $ARGS, "", $ICON, $HOTKEY, $ICON_N, $STATE)

and this is the link for the updated FTP.au3.
