in reply to copying a file

Is there a reason you are trying to do this with FTP? You are using File::Copy, so why not just use copy( $dir.$file, $dir."Temp/".$file )? (You would have to change $dir to be relative to your root then, something like "/home/doytest/cgi-bin/Data" or however you have your system set up.

If you are intent on doing it with FTP, then we'll have to figure something else out.

    Correction was made on the path and thanks for pointing that out. The file I want to copy is on an ftp server(/doytest/cgi-bin/00000001.txt) and I would like to copy this file to my pc(C:/Temp). This is want I am trying to do. If there is any other way, I am all ears.
