Molly,
Thanks for the reply. I am not sure what was the issue, but using the ftp.exe for Win2000 caused problems and using CoffeeCup Free FTP on Win98SE worked fine

: It might very well have been the issue you mentioned, but at this point i'm to happy about having been able to retrieve it to look into it further
I'm going to attempt a simple quest script to get more acquianted with the process. I'll be sure to try and upload anything I come up with. Thank you for providing access and a place to collaborate.
