OK.. I get that there are command scripts the are executed toward the FTP
program, but:
What is the environment in which the commands (OPENHOST / PUTFILE) are run?
Command Prompt? Or does the FTP program host its own scripting environment
like the R> in RBase.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Passing a variable from Rbase
Can a variable be passed from Rbase to another program that can use
variables.
EG
I found an FTP program that I can integrate into Rbase, this program can
use
variables
In Rbase
set variable in Rbase- set var vFTPHost text = 'My host name'
I know in Rbase the variable will be .vFTPHost but in the FTP program a
variable
is defined with $variablename
Can this be done
