Hi Brian,
Your the first person to actually make any sense!!!
I have a few questions, I'm a bit dumb so bear with me....


 > Using windows 95 built in ftp program;
 > ftp -s:mail.scr
I assume this a line to add to my normal batch file called by an error level?

 > In the mail.scr, I have the following script;

 > open ftp2.paonline.com
Is this my normal ISP or is it the ftp site?

This is my local inbound dir or the ftp one?

 > cd /out
 > mget inboundfilename.*
 > mdel inboundfilename.*
 > lcd f:\pxw\outbound
This is my local outbound dir or the ftp one?

 > cd /incoming
 > mput outboundfilename.*
 > mdel outboundfilename.*
 > bye

Will ftp.exe use my standard dial-up netorking scp file to dial out? If not how
does it know what tele number to dial?
Thanks for the help, with a few clarifications I'll be up and running!!!

       Seeya!
