RE: Automating a FTP

Mike,

IMHO the best way to handle this is to put together a SNDFTPF command that
you could use directly from CL.

Even better, find one already made.  I've used one from iSeries network
before (Part of their RPGIV Toolbox collection).

I'd guess there are others out there also.

HTH,
Charles
