| 1260459 | 2012-02-21 02:12:00 | Hey Guys I need a little hand on a project. I am looking for an FTP type program that can automatically retrieve a file from a location on your computer and upload it to a web server for processing. Does anyone know where I could find such a program or know how to make one? It's only 1 file, it's very small. I can do the codework from the web side, but not the PC side. :D If you need more info just let me know Cheers |

Either way, write a batch script to execute your (S)FTP commands and call it as required from Scheduled Tasks or such. |
