So basically instead of the "data" parameter in the store command retrieving the file and sending it, it sent a blank file with the actual text passed in the data parameter in it. Any idea why this would happen?

If we don't find a file, then we treat the string as data. If you are in a situation where you are not sure that the file exists, you should check programmatically for the existence of the file prior to calling Store.
