   FTP Error Message   
   08 Sep 14 21:57:00   
   
   Howdy! Mark,   
      
   PORT sounds right, Thanks.   
      
   For someone who Works in the Computer Field, I feel lucky seeing You   
   answer my questions about this here Technical Stuff. Thanks Again.   
      
   Here is what I see when the FTP transfer BURPS during the run of the   
   .BAT File I use:   
      
   ftp> binary   
   200 All files sent in BINARY mode.   
   ftp> put capcity2.rep   
   500 Syntax error: 'ORT ##.###.###.###.10.185'   
   150 Opening BINARY mode data connection for file transfer.   
      
   Then I press Ctrl-C two times and see this on the screen:   
      
   Aborting any active data connections...  <-[these two lines may be]   
   Aborting any active data connections...  <-[happening b4 I press the]   
   Connection closed by remote host.          [Ctrl-C's, Can't recall.]   
   ftp get capcity2.qwk xxxxxxxx.qwk   
   Not connected.   
   ftp> quit   
   Terminate batch job Y/N)?   
      
   Here I type Y Enter and get a CMD Prompt and try using the BATCH again.   
      
   After ORT it is Periods between the # signs above, not Commas.   
      
   I'm thinking of adding Redirection to the .BAT I use, to have a File   
   made so I could see if there is any Low ASCII or High ASCII characters   
   being sent by the AT&T DSL Server, a.k.a.  '##.###.###.###.10.185'   
   that I can see by using LIST.COM to look at the file in Hex Mode.   
      
   The people here probably figure that I ought to have gotten used to   
   being whipped by this XP MCE SP3 box, but I haven't given up yet.   
      
   Until my pre-dementia changes into the real Dementia I will fight this   
   thing to the last electron.   
      
   Pre-Dementia is a word I made up, in case anyone is wondering what   
   Medical Issue I am having.   
      
   It's not Medical it's just Ed's Head thinking that I am funny.   
      
   ... Whenever I get a grip on reality, the handle falls off.
