If I launch a SIMPLE bat FILE from a path on a network:
\\WinSrv\cr5\Dept400\me\Testing\batFiles\

then the bat executes goes to a Unix path and grabs a file (my question is this) it should then place it in here:
\\WinSrv\cr5\Dept400\me\Testing\batFiles\
Since that was where the bat file was launched from ? But I am not getting that result. Testing it in the C:\ it worked fine from the WinSrv path it did not work.

Is there a better way?

notes: %1 = userID, %2 = userPW, %3 = fileName

Code: [Select]Echo %1> ftpcmd.txt
echo %2>> ftpcmd.txt
echo ascii>> ftpcmd.txt
echo prompt n>>ftpcmd.txt
echo cd /unixPath1/parts/parts2/b/xm/data/>> ftpcmd.txt
echo get %3>> ftpcmd.txt
echo bye >> ftpcmd.txt
ftp -s:ftpcmd.txt 100.11.100.01
del ftpcmd.txt
ren \\WinSrv\cr5\Dept400\me\Testing\batFiles\%3 %3.txt
quit

Are you trying to move a file from your local; machine to a sever on the network?
Where is the batch file?
What is the detonation directory?
