Yes, that makes sense. I seem to be quite adept at making my life more complicated.

Thanks for your help.

All I can see on the screenshot is that you've made folder for sessions with name "xxxx@ftp:". I guess you've did it by mistake by naming your session "xxxx@ftp://domain.xx". WinSCP interprets the slash as folder separator, creating the folder implicitly. Though naming the session is completely free. Of course by naming the session as you did, you only make your life more complicated :-)

I just resent it with the same subject name. It has a .jpg attached (screen shot).

I haven't received anything.

I'm not sure why I have to type all of that. All I know is that it works. I emailed you a screen shot of my Login setup, if you care to look.

That does not make any sense.

It was prompting me for my user name. I should have been putting:

Sure, "open stored_session_name". Please read documentation.

I am trying to automate (scheduled daily) a simple script to download some files from my FTP to my computer using SFTP. I have a stored session that I can use to connect manually successfully. I've managed to create the script and it functions properly when I run it. See below:



I would like to avoid having to put my plain text password right in the script. Is there a way to recall my stored session with my saved password in it instead?
