Re: FTP script variables

I've never seen anything about an input file of FTP commands using

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.


If the file data to be sent via FTP PUT from a database file member, then just OVRDBF before invoking the FTP request.
