We currently do processing through filePro that will FTP a file on the unix
box and transfer it to a server so it appears on a desktop. In conjunction
with that we also simultaneously email the file to a client.
QUESTION: Can filepro be programmed to open a website, answer some questions
(password etc.) and either upload or download a file?
Can it be programmed or is there a program that can be purchased that
performs those functions?

If the request for the file can be made as one URL string then you can
use cURL for a SYSTEM command.<br>
