so it is directly sending from this box to the destination box?

ASKER

thanks for the detailed line by line explanation.

so by the line 'bye' the file should be already in destination, right?

The file will be there by the time it hits "bye". It won't start that command until it finishes the command just prior.

Thanks very much.

Thanks, BTW when you give two people the same points the second answer gets the "assisted" as it doesn't know that an answer is technically wrong .... "It's putting all the files onto the FTP server in the DEFAULT directory from the LOCAL directory c:\DB"

Anyway as long as you know what it does now!
