I wrote this because I couldn't find anything better out there... but I learned a lot from these forums, especially M2. Here it is, a script to synch with the FTP. Are there any pointers or improvements anyone could suggest? @ECHO off setLocal EnableDelayedExpansion :: Local directory DIR /b [Loacal download direcotry] > FileList.txt :: Set FTP configuration and get a list of files on the FTP > FTP.do ECHO o [FTP Server] >> FTP.do ECHO [username] >> FTP.do ECHO [password] >> FTP.do ECHO ls [add a directory here if you need to if youre not downloading from the root driectory] FTPList.txt >> FTP.do ECHO bye :: Run the FTP script ftp -s:FTP.do :: Set FTP configuration > FTP.do ECHO o [FTP Server] >> FTP.do ECHO [username] >> FTP.do ECHO [password] >> FTP.do ECHO cd [add a directory here if you need to if youre not downloading from the root driectory, if not, remove this line] >> FTP.do ECHO lcd [Loacal download direcotry] >> FTP.do ECHO prompt :: Add files you don't already have For /f "tokens=* delims=" %%a in (FTPList.txt) Do ( FindSTR /C:%%a FileList.txt if errorlevel 1 ( ECHO get %%a >> FTP.do ) else ( ECHO %%a is already there ) ) >> FTP.do ECHO bye :: Run the FTP script ftp -s:FTP.do :: Delete files del FTP.do del FileList.txt del FTPList.txt CLS

At first reading, looks like you've done it very well. Nothing I can see that needs fixing. ===================================== If at first you don't succeed, you're about average. M2
