Question

I have an application that takes a daily mdb file and displays on the web. The only issue I have is the best way to get that mdb file to the server daily. I am planning on getting a new mdb file every afternoon around 5p. I want this automated and would like to either ftp it or write a screen that allows someone to upload it. Any ideas? I would rather not have to upload it through the screen every evening.

thanks

One approach would be to use the scheduler that's built into WS-FTP Professional. See http://www.ipswitch.com/products/file-transfer.asp.

thank you for that. I am running into more and more people asking for web applications that include behind the scenes conversions(like xls to mdb or mysql), or mdb files that change daily. Anyone out there scheduling these processes within coldfusion? I am curious to know people are handling this.

thanks
