RE: Multiple File FTP

["Raymond Tenorio" <rtenorio@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Adam,

Here's some answers:

Do you know the file names before each download?  No, it's system created.
Do you download all files in a specific directory each time?  Yes I can.
Can you delete files from the server as you download them?  Yes.

Thanks for any info.

Thanks,
Ray

Hi Raymond,

Take a look at the 'append' FTP command.  I might be able to give a more 
concrete suggestion if you can answer some of the following questions:

Do you know the file names before each download?  Do you download all 
files in a specific directory each time?  Can you delete files from the 
server as you download them?

The append command should allow you to do exactly that.

On a side note - I'm not sure what you are using as an FTP client, but I'd 
highly recommend that you look at the FTP API for RPG, written by Scott 
Klement.  At least from my point of view, it is much easier to use than 
FTP from a CL.  http://www.scottklement.com/ftpapi


Hope this helps,
Adam
