NeoBookFM/FTP & Local Network Drives
Quote from PaulJonestindall on January 19, 2021, 10:23 amOk. Here's the thing:
I can use all of the native NeoBook file action commands with no problems, FileExists, FileCopy, FileErase, etc when dealing with files on local shared network drives. This includes mapped and not mapped drives. For example, I could use:
FileExists "B:\MyFile.exe" "[MyFileYN]"
or
FileExists "\\10.1.2.3\MyFile.exe" "[MyFileYN]"and either works just fine.
However, I cannot do the same with FM/FTP without the drives or folders being mapped on whatever computer I'm using.
Not all computers on my network have drives mapped with the same drive letter. So... I've tried fmConnectRemote, do I need to use a specific port? And what makes native NeoBook actions work but not FM/FTP?Thanks
