Web FTP Site

 

The Web FTP Site command initiates an FTP transfer. Just insert the FTP address and click the OK button. An FTP transfer is initiated when the macro is executed.

 

 

 

Script Editor > Expand Internet Category > Web FTP Site

 

 

Don't process embedded variables

When using a variable in the FTP edit field, this option ignores any % signs found within the variable value and will not attempt to treat the % signs as an embedded variable. It will just expand the % sign as a standard character during macro runtime.

 

 

Example

Assume for example a variable of %T[1]% with a value of ftp://ftp.macros.com/abc%23%/macexp.exe.

 

1. With this option selected, the macro will initiate the FTP transfer from ftp://ftp.macros.com/abc%23%/macexp.exe.

 

2. If the option is not selected, then the macro will assume that there is a variable of %23% and look to expand its value.


a. If the variable %23% does not exist, then the macro will generate an error because it could not find the value for this variable.


b. Otherwise it will expand the value of %23% within the main variable.
