Fellow listers,

I have a process on a Windows server that we have to
manually start and I would like to automate it as
follows:

At the end of a job on the 3000, FTP a few files to
the server and then initiate a batch file on the
server to finish some file manipulation and then move
the file to another directory.

Is it possible to initiate the Windows batch file from
the FTP connection from the 3000? If so, how is it
done. If not, is there another way to trigger the
batch file from the 3000?

I would like to have the 3000 controlling when the
Windows processing starts rather that waiting for a
scheduler on the server to start the process (and
frequently missing the correct start time)

Thanks for any suggestions or solutions.
