I'm trying to test automating some FTP transfers.

I need the automated transfer to pull from a specific folder each day that changes. It's always named the previous days date, but I only see an option to pull from a static folder.

Can this be done? Thanks for any input.

You can start the transfer from the folder above the one whose name changes.

For example if your directory structure is c:\daily changes\10-27-2011\, you would configure Auto FTP Manager to transfer c:\daily changes\ with all sub-directories. Your sub-directories will transfer even if the folder names change.
