Parameters

localFile

Specifies a local file. This string can be empty or can contain just drive and path information, in which case the host filename is used to generate a local filename. This string cannot contain wildcard characters.

remoteFile

Specifies a host file or files to be transferred. This string can contain wildcard characters (to transfer multiple files). The wildcard characters must be appropriate for the host system.

transferType

TransferTypeOption.ASCII: Specifies ASCII file transfer. InfoConnect applies the ASCII File Translation options (as specified on the Translation tab in the File Transfer Setup dialog box) to the data in the file as it is transferred. TransferTypeOption.Binary Specifies binary file transfer. Data in the file is not translated as it is transferred.

fileExists

Specifies what to do if the file already exists on the host. The possible values are: DestinationFileExistsOption.AskUser Prompts the user to specify what should be done. DestinationFileExistsOption.Cancel Stops the transfer. DestinationFileExistsOption.Update Performs the transfer only if the host file is newer than the PC file. DestinationFileExistsOption.Delete Deletes (overwrites) the existing file. DestinationFileExistsOption.Append Appends the contents of the host file to the existing PC file. DestinationFileExistsOption.Rename Renames the file being transferred. The existing file retains the original name. The last three characters of the file being transferred are changed to 001. If such a file already exists, the file's name is changed to 002, and so on up to 999. DestinationFileExistsOption.Skip Skips the file (the transfer does not take place, but no error results).

before

Specifies a date and time. Only host files created or modified before the specified date and time are transferred.

since

Specifies a date and time. Only host files created or modified after the specified date and time are transferred.

exclude

Specifies one or more files to be excluded from a wildcard transfer. The file names can include wildcards.
