Summary

Get multiple files/directories from server.

Syntax

Boolean GetMultipleFile (LocalDir, Remote, Recursive)

LocalDir String
Remote String
Recursive Boolean

Description

This function transfers multiple files from the host machine to the local system. The function can transfer specific files or entire directories. If the Recursive flag is set to True then the files will be transferred recursively.

The LocalDir parameter is a directory name and the Remote is specified as comma-separated file or directory names. For all directories, the transfer is always recursive. Wildcards can be specified for the Remote parameter.

If the files were successfully transferred, then the method returns True; otherwise, it returns False. The application should ensure that the method was successfully executed by checking the return value. The method also sets the LastResult property. The value of the LastResult property can be checked to determine if any error occurred.

The application can abort the entire operation by calling Cancel at any time during the GetMultipleFile function call. Files are always transferred in direct mode. If mode is set to event transfer, it is ignored.

Note

The Ascii or binary method needs to be called prior to this method.

Example

Result = FTPClient.GetMultipleFile ("c:\test", "test.exe, test1", True)
If Result = False Then
MsgBox "Cannot get files from server", 64, "Sample Program"
End If

"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."
