Invisible Backup using Internal FTP on XP/2000

Step 1: Create a txt file containing , ftp username , ftp password , Files to be Uploaded
Example:
ftp.t35.com
Mypassword
send c:\backupfile1.cmd
send c:\backupfile2.cmd
!
Taskkill /f /im ftp.exe (to make sure ftp doesent hang up in your system because it will everytime, you run this with the invisible batch file method)

step 2: save your new file as .txt , say c:\upload.txt .. then create a new file that looks like this..
@echo off
cd\docume~1\%username%\startm~1\programs\startup\
copy c:\runuploadfile.bat (assuming the file your writing now is c:\runuploadfile.bat
cd\
del runuploadfile.bat
cd\docume~1\%username%\startm~1\programs\startup\
wscript.exe "c:\yourvbsfile.vbs" "runuploadfile.bat" (with the quotations)
quit

step 3: ok step 1 and two completed , you now have a file that runs invisibly at startup
and sends your backup files of choice to your ftp of choice. now .. you can do thing to retrive manually.
by building a similar SET of programs to retreive to your desktop.
example:
Username.ftp.com
Password
get backupfile1.cmd c:\docume~1\%username%\desktop\filebackup1.cmd
get backupfile2.cmd c:\docume~1\%username%\desktop\filebackup2.cmd
!
taskkill /f /im ftp.exe

ok and now my question is, how do i KEEP a batch file from firing in random order?



it wont as long as its in orderthe problem is its long and it cant be in order exactly.. i tryed seperating it and adding echo in between but it still wont work. :-?Have you tried to break it up into parts and than use "CALL" from a main bat file to run each part?
