FTPAPI works so much better. Just execute the commands you want to
execute directly and get immediate feedback if they failed.

We would store FTP script values in a source file (QFTPSRC).  Then override the STDIN file to the proper source member before executing the FTP command.  If anything in the script could change then we used a program to modify the source member before the override.

Subject: FTP script variables

I've never seen anything about an input file of FTP commands using variables.  My assumption is that FTP won't work that way.

In the past, I have built FTP scripts on the fly.  This latest vendor "request" seems like another one of those cases.

This is FTP and not sFTP.

Same location.  Different filename throughout the day.  I can build the script dynamically, or just make copies of the exiting script and change the put command.

Just wondered if CL variables could be used.
