the files are sent to the ftp server by the client every day. each file has this format that contains the date it was sent -- filename example, HQ_FILENAME_03312010. (file ends with period) sent on 3/12/2010. the script should run every day and pull down today's date file and copy it to same name with extension .zip. Once in the windows directory, it would be unzipped and processed
