Example

// Name of last file accessed by an FTP function
ResName = FTPName()

Syntax

<Result> = FTPName()

<Result>: Character string

Name of last file accessed by an FTP function. This file was modified by one of the following FTP functions: FTPAttribute, FTPDate, FTPTime, FTPSize, FTPListFile.
Empty string ("") if an error occurred. To get the details of the error, use ErrorInfo with the errMessage constant.

Remarks

Request to FTP server

FTPName sends no request to the FTP server.

Timeout

By default, all the FTP functions fail if the FTP server does not respond within 20 seconds. This timeout can be modified with FTPConnect when connecting to the FTP server.

Internet browser

FTPName requires Internet Explorer version 3 or later.

If a problem occurs, we recommend that you run a test with the browser by directly passing a link such as ftp://server/... If a problem occurs with Internet Explorer (with a UNIX server for example), use FTPCommand directly.

Rights of users

Only a user who has read rights on the FTP server can retrieve the names of the files found on an FTP server. In most cases, the read rights are granted to the "anonymous" users.

Required permissions

The call to this function modifies the permissions required by the application.
Required permission : INTERNET
This permission allows the applications to open the network sockets.
