 Top  Previous  Next

Syntax:

IFNFILE

[ file name ]  goto  [ label ]

Arguments:

[ file name ]

Variable or string defining a file or path name; if no path is defined, Robo-FTP’s working folder is used.

 

[ label ]

A valid label within the current script file which is branched to if the specified file does not exist.

Options:

none

 

 

 

This script command checks for the existence of the specified file and branches to [ label ] if the file does not exist. Robo-FTP attempts to open the file to ascertain if it exists or not, so make sure that you have the proper privileges to access the file.

 

For example:

 

IFNFILE "c:\Program Files\Robo-FTP\thisfile" GOTO not found

DASHBOARDMSG "File was found, uploading now ..."

SENDFILE "c:\Program Files\Robo-FTP\thisfile"

GOTO done

 

:not found

DASHBOARDMSG "File not found."

 

:done

FTPLOGOFF

STOP

 

Note: wildcard characters in [ file name ] are not permitted.
