    How to download files from FTP via excel macro

    Hi all, I realize perhaps my last post was little confusing..

    I am having some difficulty putting below process together.

    I want to create a macro in excel that upon running it, it will download 3 files from FTP server onto my specified shared drive.

    Below are the steps I attempted but seems, but it doesn't seem to work.. Any help suggestions would be greatly appreciated

    Thanks so much


    1) I created (test.bat) file

    2) I set up a macro in excel with: RetVal = Shell("H:\test.BAT", 1)

    However when I run the macro, it just runs everything in a sec and nothing happens..

    Am I missing something? My G drive is a shared drive..I would prefer the files to be downloaded there but otherwise I assume its default to my C drive?
