VB.NET implementation failing

I implemented very simple application using the VB.NET class posted and tried tu upload a text file to an SFTP server (I can connect via another SFTP client). The code fails when it can't find a log file, on this line:
If Not File.Exists(logname) Then

Please advise. All I need to do is automate a daily file upload of a file matching a particular naming convention in a standard directory. .NET may be overkill, but I don't understand the explanation about Aautomating scripts - it seems to be full of holes. If I can get this working I'll gladly donate $100+

Thanks

That's what I was kind of wondering about. The examples on the .NET webpage didn't specify a path at all, but I couldn't tell what the error was referring to. Let me try it with the full path on my next batch run and see if that clears it up.

Using VB.NET 2005 with the following code--Exception occurs

Dim winscp As Process = New Process()

        winscp.StartInfo.FileName = "winscp.com"

        winscp.StartInfo.Arguments = "/log=" + logname

        winscp.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False

        winscp.StartInfo.RedirectStandardInput = True

        winscp.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = True

        winscp.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True

        winscp.Start()


When it executes, I get an unhandled exception saying "The system can not find the file specified" at the last line. This code was copied from the website for VB.NET automation here.

Problem is, I can't tell what file the system can not find. The data of the error says nothing.
