How do you change from an ascii transfer to a binary one.<br><br>Here is an exemple of my code :<br><br>&nbsp;use Net::FTP;<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp = Net::FTP-&gt;new(&quot;some.host.name&quot;, Debug =&gt; 0);<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp-&gt;login(&quot;anonymous&quot;,'<A HREF="mailto:me@here.ther">me@here.ther</A>e');<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp-&gt;cwd(&quot;/pub&quot;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp-&gt;get(&quot;that.file&quot;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp-&gt;quit;<br><br><br>I need a syntaxe exemple please.<br>

there's an example of this in <A HREF="ftp://FTP.pm" TARGET="_new">FTP.pm</A> - errmm - 'perldoc Net::FTP' will display the documentation I think <p>Mike<br><a href=mailto:michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com>michael.j.lacey@ntlworld.com</a><br><a href=

No it's not in perldoc.<br><br>But I have found out how and here it is :<br><br>use Net::FTP;<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp = Net::FTP-&gt;new(&quot;some.host.name&quot;, Debug =&gt; 0);<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp-&gt;login(&quot;anonymous&quot;,'<A HREF="mailto:me@here.ther">me@here.ther</A>e');<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp-&gt;binary();<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp-&gt;cwd(&quot;/pub&quot;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp-&gt;get(&quot;that.file&quot;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$ftp-&gt;quit;<br><br><br><br>I guess that $ftp-&gt;ascii(); would work to.<br><br>So there it is.<br><br>Thanks anyway Mike<br><br><br>
