Scripting Issues with FTPS

I need to modify an existing application to use FTPS to send data to a remote host. I have created a stored session that I can successfully invoke from the script within my application to open my session with the remote host. However, I am required to make the script independent of my stored session, and I need to include the username and password in the open command (I think).
How do I code the Open command to include the username and password?

Please read:
https://winscp.net/eng/docs/scriptcommand_open
https://winscp.net/eng/docs/session_url

I am unable to open an ftps implicit session via command line. The GUI session works fine, but I need to automate the process. <account> is our account name, <password> is the password and <key> is the certificate key. I removed them to post my issue. Sorry, I do not know how to set logging to debug from the command line. Any idea why the FTPS protocol is not being invoked?


I am calling WinSCP via WinBatch in the following line:
Format:RunShell( programname, params, directory, @NORMAL|@ICON|@ZOOMED|@HIDDEN, @WAIT|@NOWAIT|@GETPROCID|@GETEXITCODE )

Code:RunShell("C:\Program Files\WinSCP\WinSCP.com", "/implicit /certificate=<key> /passive /script=c:\scripts\eAuditSolutions_WinSCPscript.txt /log=""C:\Documents and Settings\jranone\desktop\eAudit.log""", "C:\Program Files\WinSCP\", @NORMAL, @NOWAIT)


With the following script file:
# Automatically answer all prompts negatively not to stall the script on errors
option batch on

# Disable overwrite confirmations that conflict with the previous
option confirm off

# Connect using a username and password
open <account>:<password>@www.eauditsolutions.com:990

# Change local directory
lcd c:\scripts

#upload the 340b file to the remote directory
put *_340b.txt

#end session
#close

#close WinSCP.com session
#exit
