This list rules - I have always been able to receive tips and advice no
matter what the subject. So Thanks In Advance.
Here's the question: I generate paperwork for various clients daily and
would like to upload them via a droplet to an FTP server. I would like the
script to parse the paperwork's filename (in format -
Phil-20010622-Clientname.xls) by clientname and date. That's no problem, I
can handle doing that, but I don't know if I can do what I want to do after
that.
The FTP server has a directory on it called "Clients" in which there are
individual directories named with our various clients names. Inside these
client folders are subdirectories in the format "2001-05".
Is it possible to have AppleScript check the existence of a date folder and
create one if it doesn't exist? I could do this on a regular file server
but I'm not sure that it's possible with an FTP server.
