Ftp

Hello everybody,

I want to send a document via standard FTP (Win98,WinXP) to a printer.

Question 1: Is it possible?
Question 2: If so, how?

I only tried using code with a "SHELL" command.
But this doesn't work.

I already found a solution (see below):

FtpUser[1] := 13; // Global var. text
FtpPw[1] := 13; // Global var. text
//Create FTP Script 
FtpScript.CREATE('D:\script.txt');
FtpScript.TEXTMODE(TRUE); 
FtpScript.WRITE(FtpUser); //Variables with USERID 
FtpScript.WRITE(FtpPw); //Variable with FTP PW 
FtpScript.WRITE('binary'); 
FtpScript.WRITE('Put d:\test.txt 172.16.155.143'); // Print test.txt to a IP address from a printer
FtpScript.WRITE('quit'); 
FtpScript.CLOSE; 

//Exec FTP Transfer 
SHELL('ftp','-s:D:\script.txt','172.16.155.143');

//Clear Folder
//Clear Script because readable password!! 
IF EXISTS('D:\script.txt') THEN
  FILE.ERASE('D:\script.txt');

Maybe someone else needs it
