The way we are using FTP is that via a CL it executes a script that
among other things has the file name in it currently. Is this the only
way to automate FTP ? I'm trying to figure out how to pass a file name
that would change every day.

It's not hard to write a program that builds the script for you ... when you PUT the file, just have it use a generated target file name.
