Del "%_ScriptFile%"Does this help?
If you can't generate the ftp-filename from your end, you have a long row to hoe: download a "dir" of the ftp directory, convert dates, subtract converted dates from today's date, download all files that qualify. If it came to that, I would strive, mightily, to find a better way. "jdtt_05gbser.txt" tells me zilch about any relationship to previous filenames or the file's date.
Hi Twittee,
your script is very good but still i dont understand how to copy only yesterday's files
