For the way you have it, yes, it will have to be manual,
FTP is FTP, you cannot mix code.

Without knowing the whole scope, does it matter what the file
name will be?

We do some "creative" things here to FTP files; basically
we find out the file name, have either a C/L or RPGILE
change our source script file, then run it.

We also receive FTP's here with varied file names, but then
too just read through to search for new ones to process -
thus the programs do not care what the file names are.

I am not sure if you can get away with it, but just some
food for thought.

Subject: BATCH ftp ?


Having a problem with getting this to do what I want.  What I need it to
do is stay in the FTP session after the dir in the sctipt file (listed
below) because we do not know what the file name will be.  I want the
operator to manually enter the appropriate get command but the ftp
session does an "implicit" quit after the last line of the FTP script
and the runqry starts.  Can I do wat I want or is the "whole" thing
going to have to be manual.
