Re: FTP BATCH

Dear Alex,

  It's difficult to diagnose the problem when I don't know how your
particular system is set up.  But one or two things leapt out at me.
First, I think

cd T:\FTP-EDS

should be

cd /d T:\FTP-EDS

I'm also puzzled by

del XEDS /q

Is XEDS a folder?  Thirdly, the RENAME command doesn't work as below

ren *.* XEDS

Type REN /? from the command line for help and syntax.  Lastly, after
the PROMPT command and before you download the zip files, insert

BIN

on a line by itself, just to be on the safe side,

HTH,
John
