Is there any way to read/delete file from ftp server by using DTS package? I tried FSO in ActiveX Script Task, but it seems there's no way to open a file on ftp server.

If DTS package has no way to work, what's the other option? I use Access as front end. By clicking the button, it downloads all text files from web server to a local folder, then ranames them, reads them and deletes them if files are blank. After this, old text files on ftp server should be deleted and the new blank text files should be created. Now, I have a DTS package to download, rename, read and delete, but I'm not able to figure out how to delete/create files on ftp server.
