Scripting multiple file "puts" in sFTP...

I need to send multiple files to a remote server via sFTP. I had everything set up to connect and send a single file automatically using a batch file and key authentication. Recently, however, the process has changed and we now need to send multiple files, one at a time, pausing for up to ten minutes in between files. I am having trouble passing a variable from my .ksh script to the sftp command. Once I pass control over to the batch file for sftp, it only recognizes sftp commands. I can't use a wildcard like "file*.RPT" because it will send all of the files up at once, without pausing in between them.

Does anyone have any experience scripting with sFTP that can shed some light on this for me?
