* This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
* See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

loFtp = CreateObject('Chilkat.Ftp2')

loFtp.Hostname = "ftp.example.com"
loFtp.Username = "login"
loFtp.Password = "password"

* Connect and login to the FTP server.
lnSuccess = loFtp.Connect()
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loFtp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loFtp
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Tell the FTP object to keep an in-memory session log
* so we can see the commands sent to the server,
* and the responses received back.
loFtp.KeepSessionLog = 1

* Change the current remote directory via the Quote method:
lnSuccess = loFtp.Quote("CWD junk")
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loFtp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loFtp
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Move back up 
* In this case, ChangeRemoteDir sends "CWD .." to the FTP server.
lnSuccess = loFtp.ChangeRemoteDir("..")
IF (lnSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loFtp.LastErrorText
    RELEASE loFtp
    CANCEL
ENDIF

* Do the same via the SendCommand method where the
* raw FTP server response is returned:
lcServerResponse = loFtp.SendCommand("CWD junk")
IF (loFtp.LastMethodSuccess <> 1) THEN
    ? loFtp.LastErrorText
ELSE
    ? lcServerResponse
ENDIF

lnSuccess = loFtp.Disconnect()

? "Session Log:"
? loFtp.SessionLog

RELEASE loFtp
