Is there anyone who can help me with a DOS BATCH file command which will allow FTP automation. I.E: I have the batch file set up but when it starts FTP it hangs in the background after "FTP> " Is there a way to have the commands in the batch file continue? I.E. FTP>open etc. etc. etc. all the way to "bye" ?? Thanks for any help. TTOSBT

The new strategy is starting to show up in the financial press (the link is to the first half of the article). forbes.com When was the last time Forbes did a spot on Borland/Inprise? The article is a little sparse on details of Fuller's plan (probably because the details are still in the works) but it sounds like a nice story so far. Mentioned in the article is Borland/Inprise lack of focus. This new plan doesn't seem to add focus, but generates yet another product to support and spend R&D resources on. Is there anyone that works closely with the ASP (application service providers) business that can comment on the viability of this plan? Dennis
