On 7.7.03 focexec, I issue any DOS ftp command:

DOS ftp -s:script.one

I am getting error message:
FTP IS NOT RECOGNIZED AS AN INTERNAL OR EXTERNAL COMMAND

I can manually get to a CMD window and successfully run the same ftp command.
Any idead what is stopping my DOS ftp command issued from an FocExec?

This probably will not make a difference, but have you tried ! ftp -s:script.one.

Or add the path to the executable.
DOS c:\windows\system32\ftp -s:script.one

Did you test it in a CMD window on the server?

Apparently your ftp command is in your PATH on a CMD prompt. Perhaps it isn't in the PATH in the environment where the WF server started up from?

If you added it to your PATH after WF started up, you'll want to stop and start the WF server. Restart may not work, as that will probably happen in the same already running environment.
