If you want to send via FTP I have an example for you.

Func FTPimagesToServer(Const $scriptname, Const $templocation, ByRef $dir)
;$scriptname = name of scriptfile for ftp to use
;$templocation = where you want to create the temp files
;$dir = if you need a unique subdir for each file
    $FTPserver = "server.name"
    $FTPuser = "username"
    $strpas = "password"

    $ftpfile = FileOpen($scriptname, 10) 
    If $ftpfile = -1 Then
        MsgBox(0, "Error", "File Open Failure")
        Exit
    EndIf
    FileWrite($ftpfile, $FTPuser & @CRLF)
    FileWrite($ftpfile, $strpas & @CRLF)
    FileWrite($ftpfile, "binary" & @CRLF)
    FileWrite($ftpfile, "lcd " & Chr(34) & $templocation & $dir & Chr(34) & @CRLF)
    FileWrite($ftpfile, "cd " & Chr(34) & "path_on_server" & Chr(34) & @CRLF)
    FileWrite($ftpfile, "Mkd " & Chr(34) & $dir & Chr(34) & @CRLF)
    FileWrite($ftpfile, "cd " & Chr(34) & $dir & Chr(34) & @CRLF)
    FileWrite($ftpfile, "put " & Chr(34) & "filename.ext" & Chr(34) & @CRLF)
    FileWrite($ftpfile, "ascii" & @CRLF)
    FileWrite($ftpfile, "bye" & @CRLF)
    FileClose($ftpfile)
    $status = Run(@ComSpec & " /c ftp -s:" & $scriptname & " " & $FTPserver, $templocation, @SW_HIDE)

    If @error <> 0 Then
        MsgBox(0,"",$status & " Return from FTP" & "Error: " & @error)
    EndIf
EndFunc  ;==>_FTPimagesToServer

thanks very much for the answer.

but i an bit new to ftp commands and i have questions

i have a script and i want when u press a button enter a server ftp and put a rar file with known name, i was using if case for the buttons can i add ftp commands there or i need func always?

$scriptname=(is the name of the file i want to send?

$templocation= u mean the server folder i want to copy file?

$dir =file is only one so it will not be needed

is there something more small and simple like connect server copy file and send in the folder u want? because it isnt so easy for me.

$scriptname - is the path and name of a temporary file that is a parameter file for FTP. example: c:\temp\temp.ftp

The above file is an answer file to FTP. it contains the commands for FTP to execute. I can be deleted after the sucessful transfer is complete.

$temploaction - is the c:\temp\ part of $scriptname - in this example

If you don't need $dir then remove the line "FileWrite($ftpfile, "Mkd " & Chr(34) & $dir & Chr(34) & @CRLF)"

mkd means make a directory or folder on the server.

cd means change directory or folder on the server.

lcd means change directory or folder on the local machine.

Sorry I don't know of a simpler way at the moment. Hope this helps.
