still stuck on this one....
I have let this project go and have been handling the premature deletes manually. It has now reached a more critical mass, and I must solve this.
I am still using the rm * method, which is prone to problems. How do i reference the move_file script from within my script?

Why don't you show the entire scenario - your script(s), directory structures, etc.
You should abstain from the rm * - no good!
jim mcnamara has shown you a way to handle file by file, and, which might be even safer, I'd consider to use the sftp rename command to move the files to the remote new path without losing any of them.
