Hello again. Thank you very much for the responses. I will try to answer your questions to the best of my ability. I am in a location where I cannot access the files, but I should be able to answer by memory.
Eagle - I will double check the that the .bat file calls the .txt file from the right location, but I doubt this is the issue because I was meticulous in creating the files. And yes, I believe the .bat file and the .txt file which get created are located in the same directory. They are both stored in the same folder.
Corona - The path does have a space in it. How would I get ftp to consider the entire path? As I mentioned in my first post, the error appears to be at the space. Perhaps restating it will help. The files are saved in a location: U:shared/common/FA - Files
The error says it cannot run the script from the location. In the ftp it shows only: U:shared/common/FA.
It is missing the last "- Files". Without changing the folder name, how can I correct this?
Methyl - I did not reveal enough information to make the .bat file's complete intent. This .bat file is based on a larger VBA project in a different application. The batch file is intended to create a temporary file which pulls data from an excel spreadsheet (the data changes). The spreadsheet is set up in such a way that it contains all the remaining proper syntax required to transfer all the files I need. Once the spreadsheet's data has been pasted into the temporary .txt file, the .txt file is complete will all the data I need. At this point, the .bat file is supposed to "run" this .txt file in ftp.
In my first post, I mentioned the .txt file is created exactly how I need it. I can manually type out the .txt file in ftp and it works as it is supposed to. The issue I have is why the .bat file cannot run the .txt file through ftp in the location it currently is. I know very little about Unix and ftp so it does not surprise me that the syntax or logic is bad, but for my purposes, I think the functionality is very nearly complete.
The network name of the server is: U:shared/common/FA - Files
Everything including the excel sheet, .bat file, and .txt file which gets created are all located in the folder called "FA - Files". I am not 100% sure of the format. I know the excel file is a special format. I "borrowed" it from other processes which use ftp. Source file, destination file, and ftp username and passwords are all in the excel file - which correctly go into the .txt file.
Thanks again guys. I'm hoping these details can help clear things up. I think the space in the path name is my issue. Changing this will not be easy unfortunately.

simpleftp
SIMPLEFTP(1) InterNetNews Documentation SIMPLEFTP(1)
NAME
simpleftp - Rudimentary FTP client
SYNOPSIS
simpleftp url [...]
DESCRIPTION
simpleftp is a Perl script that provides basic support for fetching files with FTP in a batch oriented fashion. It takes one or more FTP
URLs on the command line. The file(s) will be retrieved from the remote server and placed in the current directory with the same basename
as on the remote; e.g., <ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/active.gz> is stored as active.gz in the current directory.
The script properly understands usernames, passwords and ports specified as follows:
ftp://user:password@host:port/path/file
BUGS
simpleftp is an extremely poor substitute for more complete programs like the freely available wget or ncftp utilities. It was written
only to provide elementary support in INN for non-interactive fetching of the files in <ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/pgpcontrol/> or
<ftp://ftp.isc.org/pub/usenet/CONFIG/> without requiring administrators to install yet another package. Its shortcomings as a general
purpose program are too numerous to mention, but one that stands out is that downloaded files by simpleftp override existing files with the
same name in the local directory.
