file transfer

[DPaul]

transfer any new file right after it is created

Yes, you are right. I did think of that, but:
The place where I create these "files", is not the same (physically)
as where the server is. Hence.
But as it is a real problem, and I if don't find another solution,
I'll have to do the development over there, at least for large batches.

The trick with the "send to" (zip), transfer, unzip would be OK,
but why does the unzip take so much more time than the zip?
thx,
Paul
