Summary

Command to send to server.

Description

The Quote property is used to send a command to the FTP server. The command is sent as is to the FTP server over the established connection. For example, setting the Quote property to CDUP is identical to calling the ParentDir method.

The Quote property cannot be used to obtain a directory listing or for transferring files, but it can be used for any other FTP command. For example, an application may set the Quote property to PWD to get the current working directory. The PWD command will be sent to the server and the response from the server will be delivered to the application with an OnReceive event. The result of this operation is identical to accessing the CurrentDir property.

The server's response to the FTP command can be a single line response (for example PWD) or a multiple line response (for example HELP).

The value of the LastResult property can be checked to determine if the FTP command was executed successfully.

The Quote property can be set at run time only. There is no default value for this property.

Example

FTPClient.Quote = "HELP"

Note

The Quote command is typically used to execute commands on the server that are not directly available from the ActiveX itself.

"The night before I went on summer holiday we had to make some 'last minute' configuration changes to approx. 300 routers, a tedious job to do manually with telnet. We went along with MS Excel containing a list of IP-adresses to the routers, and the VIT telnet-component. One hour later the VBA-application (small is beautiful) was working, and after another hour all of our routers were updated with the new configuration. I just say a big "Thanks" to you all for a good sleep that night."
