Hello everyone,
Something tells me that FLASHFXP is the product I have been searching for. It's like a long lost love. :)

I have completed all the setup except getting the files to upload to a server folder using the scheduler.

I have the local folder for the site and the remote in place. My files are specifically csv.

What do I put in the File Queue? The name of my file changes, however the type is the same.

All I need to do is schedule an upload task so that files at specified times are uploaded to my server.

Thanks

If file names change then you'll have to queue up parent dir rather than files themselves.

alternatively you could use autoit with the functions FileFindFirstFile and FileFindNextFile (see http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions.htm) or just check out the main site.
In fact you can let autoit control flashfxp in a fairly simple way...

I forgot to mention that it is a FREE tool...
