[AccessD] Delete from FTP

Hello All,

Thanks for the feedback.

In the ftp demo I had originally used...I couldn't find where the file was 
actually deleted from the ftp site.  I found a .DelFile in the module but it 
was never called.  I opnly used the .GetFile and apparently the .GetFile 
deletes the ftp file after it gets it?

So...since I didn't need to GET having already used docmd.transfertext I 
just used teh same module and replace the .GetFile with the .DelFile and 
everthing is OK.

I am still curious why the .GetFile deletes thew source file...or I might 
just be overlooking ...but I know the .DelFile is never called in the 
original demo.

Thanks,

Mark A. Matte
