|
|
Me again...
The VDSIPP.DLL solved my problem with bin/ascii file transfers for SPECIFIC files, but I can't download a list of filenames for "mass transfers".
I strictly followed the example in the help, but the value returned by the 'filelist' command always is NULL. The returncode of the 'filelist' command is 250 which definitely is an error, but I can't find a list of ftp returncodes
The remote directory I try to retrieve the filelist from is the correct one, this has been checked with 'currentdir' after the neccessary 'changedir'.
What makes me wonder is that the help says a LIST of files is transferred, but then, in the help, the result of @internet(ftp,filelist,%x) is assigned to a usual variable?! I tried playing around with lists (list assign etc.) but that only caused "invalid list command" errors...
Any ideas??
TIA!

... but the help did not mention I have to issue a REFRESH command first!
