Move files WITHIN a server using ftp.exe

I've got vba code for building a script file for use with ftp.exe, but it only supports uploading and downloading to/from local computer and server.

But, I don't want to transfer files from my local computer.  I want to MOVE files from one server folder to another server folder.

Anyone know how I can do this?

  With the built-in windows client, a download, delete, upload will be it.  There is no rename or move command.  Other FTP clients may offer those features.

Thanks!  It never occurred to me that you could move a file by renaming it to the new folder.  Cool.
