Save to SFTP not working.

W

WhytheQ

Hello All,

Not too sure if this is actually possible. I found some code for
saving to an FTP site in this group - problem is that our customer has
come back to us with an SFTP site instead - now the code doesn't work.

I've changed a few names (to protect the innocent) but if anyone can
spot any way of getting the following to work I'd be very happy -
maybe just not possible to automate to an SFTP site.
