(Original message at the end)

The solution was fairly straightforward - I just needed to remove the spaces
before the 'EOF' character

 I have a script which I want to do an ftp transfer, then
 carry on. But what I
 am finding is that it exits after doing the ftp transfer. How
 can I get it to
 return control to the script, and carry on.
 Thanks in advance

 ftp -n -v << EOF > FTPLOG.log
  open host1
  user tmccar pass1
  site umask 011
  cd download
  get tempfile
  EOF
 Note - script exits here - I want it to continue
 grep -s 'No such file or directory' FTPLOG.log'
  if [ $? != 0] then
     echo 'tempfile not found'
  fi
 more commands here
