file not found with lcd command

Hi members,
When I execute ftp commands in cmd prompt(ftp>) my lcd command is
working fine and I can very well transfer my files from my machine to
server. Whereas, when i put the same commads in my asp file, its
showing file not found message. I'm writing all my ftp commands into a
..ftp file and executing the same. I've given to print all my result of
execution, in my browser.

It shows something like this,

ftp> Connected to myServerIP.
open myServerIP
220 bchndss04 Microsoft FTP Service (Version 5.0).
User (myServerIP:(none)):
331 Password required for myUsername.

230 User myUsername logged in.
ftp> ftp>
ftp> lcd C:\myFolder\TASK
\myFolder\TASK: File not found
cd /remotefolder/test
250 CWD command successful.
ftp> Interactive mode Off .
ftp> prompt
binary
200 Type set to I.
ftp> mput *.sql
200 PORT command successful.
150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for instcat.sql.
226 Transfer complete.
ftp: 761625 bytes sent in 0.00Seconds 761625000.00Kbytes/sec.
ftp> bye
221


I'm facing problem in this line,

ftp> lcd C:\myFolder\TASK
\myFolder\TASK: File not found

Also, it has transferred instcat.sql from local drive of remote
machine.

But, I need to transfer from my machine(TASK folder contents- *.sql
files)
C:\myFolder\TASK.

When I execute the commands from here, what i've given, in ftp> mode,
it works well.
Can anybody solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Since this looks like a Windows pathname, try asking in a Windows
newsgroup rather than Unix.

Why don't you just cd to the appropriate directory BEFORE starting up
ftp?

Hi Barry Margolin,
I tried using cd cmd before starting ftp commands, but as i'm
putting all cmds inside a ftp file, it is considering the cmd as ftp
cmd. No improvement.

Thanx.

Don't put all the commands inside the ftp file. Use a script that runs
ftp, and put the cd in the script before starting ftp.

Re: file not found with lcd command

My problem is not with "cd" command. I'm getting problem with "lcd"
command.
I'm running an application from server in my machine. While uploading,
"lcd" commands needs to make use of my machine's directory, say
C:\myFolder.

But, it refers C:\ of server. So, lcd is working with same machine,
but different directories. But lcd of my machine, cd to remote machine
works fine when i enter into ftp mode from my machine. Hope u
understand my problem.

Barry's suggestion is that a "cd" command BEFORE starting ftp will have
the same effect that "lcd" should have. However, it still seems to
me that you should be asking for help in a Windows newsgroup.
