Zip and FTP a File via a batch script

batch-filebatch-processing

I am trying to ZIP and FTP a file in one batch file. The Zip part works, but the FTP application reads the entire batch script, rather than just the lines below the FTP commands, causing errors

If these files are nor read sequentially, how do I Zip and FTP in the same batch file?

@echo off
:: zip the file(s)
7z a -tzip c:\test.zip c:\unst.log
:: ftp the files
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ftp.exe -s:%0
open 10.1.7.10
myusername
mypassword
binary
put c:\test.zip
quit
pause
::exit

I am not sure on how the %0 works but doing on the follow way it works just fine for me:

@echo off
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ftp.exe -s:ftp_data.txt
pause

Where ftp_data.txt has the follow content:

open 10.0.0.2
username
password
binary
put the_file_i_want_to_upload.txt
quit
