I have an ftp batch script that I am using within a bat file. Is there anyway to capture/query the results of the ftp script. For instance, I would like to be able to tell if ftp error code 552 resulted during a file upload. I am capturing the ftp output but don't know how to utilize within my bat file. For instance, can I somehow use the 'find' command to do this?

would actualy to code for errors within your script. here is how I did it in a shell script for a unix box

[i]ftp -i -v -n ftp.droolin.org < $HOME/Unreal3.2/config/damnit.txt[/i]

That was the ftp to a home server with all display output being directed to damnit.txt

Here is the check against that file for an error.

[i]grep '530 Login incorrect.' $HOME/Unreal3.2/config/damnit.txt > $HOME/Unreal3.2/config/damnit1.txt
if test -s $HOME/Unreal3.2/config/damnit1.txt
then
notify_email "Subject: Incorrect password was specified for $SERVERNAME. FTP update has aborted"
fi[/i]
