Problem to do login with password with special characters

Post by MarioM »

Hi
I used FTPAPI many times without problems. Now I am facing problems to do login to the ftp server. If I try from command line of my i, the login is successful, if I do login using Ftpapi, using the same user and password, I receive "login incorrect". I think that the problem is thet the password contains two special characters "@" and "#". As I can't change the password given how can I solve this? Using google I saw that my problem is not unusual and some people suggested to use "\" before this special characters.Any other suggestion.
Thanks in advance
Mario
