VB Script to Delete a File on FTP Site

[klewis10367]

Does anyone have a generic script that would delete a file from an FTP site?

You can use the built in FTP client and use a answer file to do what you want.

Transfers files to and from a computer running an FTP server service
(sometimes called a daemon). Ftp can be used interactively.

FTP [-v] [-d] [-i] [-n] [-g] [-s:filename] [-a] [-w:windowsize] [-A] [host]

-v Suppresses display of remote server responses.
-n Suppresses auto-login upon initial connection.
-i Turns off interactive prompting during multiple file
transfers.
-d Enables debugging.
-g Disables filename globbing (see GLOB command).
-s:filename Specifies a text file containing FTP commands; the
commands will automatically run after FTP starts.
-a Use any local interface when binding data connection.
-A login as anonymous.
-w:buffersize Overrides the default transfer buffer size of 4096.
host Specifies the host name or IP address of the remote
host to connect to.

Notes:
- mget and mput commands take y/n/q for yes/no/quit.
- Use Control-C to abort commands.

Or maybe try something like this:

This isn't really generic but it may help. This short thread uses CuteFTP's object in a vbscript.

Found another thread.

This is on auto uploading but looked like it should be quite helpfull and it uses IE to do the transfers rather than building a scipt file for the command line FTP.

Hope this helps.
