Having problems using the FTP object...

[RGBreality]

Hey, folks!

I'm having some problems using the FTP object. I'm sure it's just user error on my part, but I haven't figured out what I'm doing wrong yet.

I am trying to upload an updated DataGrid file (saved to the hard drive) to an FTP site. I have confirmed that all is well with the FTP site, and in fact I can download the DataGrid file from the FTP site without problems. I am now trying to overwrite the DataGrid file that is on the FTP site.

When I attempt to upload to the FTP site, the FTP window acts as if it is continually trying to make a connection. Yet, I have a condition set up that if there is a connection issue, to display an Edit box saying so.

When I change the name of the file once it is uploaded (it is originally called "File A," and I specify to change it to "File B" on the FTP site), the same behavior occurs, yet the new file does get written to the FTP site--it just does it over and over again (I think).

Yet, if I don't change the name of the file, the uploaded file never overwrites the one on the FTP site.

(I think) I have verified that the action to upload the file doesn't repeat itself because the condition is set up that way (such as an "Always" condition or when a flag is on but isn't then turned off).

So, I'm at a loss at the moment. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you for your assistance!



Most graciously...

I've used this object before with 0 problems.

I don't understand, can you even upload any files at all?
