VB code FTP

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to automate FTP process? I want to be able to run an Access database that creates a table in another database that is FTPd to our website. Is it possible to do the FTP piece using VB code? Thank you.

Yep, I don't see why that isn't possible. Are you familiar with the FTP RFC? It will tell you the commands, etc that you need to send to the FTP server to login, send files, etc... just one sec and ill find it...

http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc959/Overview.html

Now, you can use that in combo with Jason's article on a VB chat app (that uses WinSock), which is here: http://www.devarticles.com/art/1/45 to create an automated FTP client. If you run into trouble, then you're more than welcome to post any problems right here.

can also use wininet

as you are using access, you must be running windows, so you can easily use the wininet api to do ftp - it should be a little easier than messing about with the winsock control...

Thank you all for the suggestions. I must admit this is all foreign to me. I hope I can make sense out of the documentation. Appreciate the feedback!
