Hello Monks: I am writing a perl script that download files from a directory C:/Users/Win7/Desktop/intenship doc2 in the local machine added to an ftp server, to another directory C:/users/Desk/personal in the same local machine not added to the ftp server. When I run the script the server outputs an error: (000019)4/4/2012 12:20:20 PM - terence (127.0.0.1)> 550 CWD failed. "/C:/Users/Win7/Desktop/intenship doc2": directory not found. I checked the directory investigating if i have mixed up the cases of the letters but everything was O.K, Can the monks help m? here is the code 

#!/usr/local/bin/perl
use DBI;
use Net::FTP;
use File::Basename;

#connection paraneters to localhost
    $IP='127.0.0.1';
    $users='Terence';
    $password='christine';
    $directory="C:/Users/Win7/Desktop/intenship doc2/";
#Connection to netboss
    $ftp = Net::FTP->new($IP, Debug => 0, Passive => 0) or die "cannot
+ connect";
    $ftp->login($users,$password);
    $ftp->cwd($directory);
#list files
@fichier=$ftp->ls($directory);

foreach (@fichier)
{
 $file = basename($_);
if($file = "00wa-mb")
{
$ftp->get($file,"C:/users/Desk/personal".$file);
}
$ftp->quit;
