Bob,
I am using the "put" because I am writing to a ftp web server. So I need to
pass a username and password.
How would I rename the file on a remote server? Also, how would you suggest I
go about this? I could end up in a endless error check...
rename the original file
write the data
if error then
rename the original file back
if error then
then what?
What do you think?
