Hi guys

im trying to use ftp to transfer a file from a server at work in vba to my C
drive.

normally I go into CMD, type "ftp sysd"
username is asked for, so I type and press enter.
password is asked for, so I type and press enter.
then I type the "get" command followed by the filename - for example:
get 'zh.test.sas(testfile)' C:/testfile.txt
then quit, then close.

Ive used:
Shell "command.com /c ftp sysd"
which opens the ftp in command, however im unsure how to send the rest of
the commands to the window.

Any help greatly appreciated.
