hi, christopher and gnarladious,
to answer your question gnarladious : it is saved as an applicaction.....
to ansvers your question christopher:
yes the ftp command is given via the command line:
do shell script "" & filetosendpath_POLE & "; curl -T " & stuff_name_POLE & " " & ftpPOLETEST & "" & stuff_name_POLE & ""
Explanation: all names between & & are variables predefined in the script...
Christopher, I don't see an other solution to ftp (with user and password) without using any software.
What do you mean with set up your script as an application and then" tell yourself "?
best regards,jan
