help with batch file for FTP transfer

[talytech]

I am trying to auto connect to FTP site and transfer a file to my local hard drive. The following code is what I have but isn't working:

Code: Select all

@echo off 
cd c:\documents and settings\e3utbl\desktop\ert
ftp
open fm-nsnotrix
username
password
get span\span.txt
bye

Could someone please help me with this? What happens when I run this script the DOS window opens to the "FTP>" prompt

password
!:--- FTP commands below here ---
lcd "c:\documents and settings\e3utbl\desktop\ert"
text
get span\span.txt
disconnect
