The trouble I am experiencing is that I will have a folder that all of the output files which need to be posted will be going into, and the name of each file will change sequentially (number range e.g. 4000001.dat 4000002.dat).
The @ prevents it from working because the shell takes it literally, and finds no files @/... Also, curl expects the list to be comma-separated.
You could make the list first, then put it in:
Code:
# Save the list of files in $1, $2, ...
# This will overwrite the current values of $1, $2, ...
set -- /path/to/file/*.dat
# Split on , so the list you generate with "$*" will be comma-separated
OLDIFS="$IFS"
IFS=","
curl -d @"$*" "https://posting.server.com/test.aspx"
IFS="$OLDIFS"

I have taken a look and had a go at this, but unfortunately the files which I need to send must keep their original file name as they are order numbers.
Is it possible to create a script that will run my command for each file in the folder, changing the file name in the command each time?

They do keep their original file names. Take another look at what I did. I'm not replacing files.
