I'm trying to determine if a particular file exists on an ftp server. I am using the following command: FTPFileExists( "ftpserver", "id", "password", "//apps//prod//jeff.txt", found ) Each time I debug this script it returns "true" for my found variable even if the file does not exist on the ftp server. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks,
Jeff

Sorry, I see Norm was having this same problem on 6/16. I will try to use the ftpdir statement as a workaround as well unless you know the problem with the ftpfileexists function.
Thanks,
Jeff

It appears that FTPFileExists doesn't work with some FTP servers. Use FTPDir instead.

Here is how

Dim( results, string )
Dim( found , boolean )
FTPDir( FTPAcct, FTPUser, FTPPw, TargetFile, results )
IsEqual( "", results, found )
