API Problems

[Jonathan]

I'm using the WinIAPI.dll functions to write a program that does some stuff with FTP. I've got all the functions I need working, except for one. It's called FtpCommand, and I have declared it as:<br>
<br>
Declare Function FtpCommand Lib "wininet.dll" Alias "FTPCommandA" _<br>
(ByVal hConnect As Long, _<br>
ByVal fExpectResponse As Boolean, _<br>
ByVal dwFlags As Long, _<br>
ByVal lpszCommand As String, _<br>
ByVal dwContext As Long, _<br>
ByRef phFtpCommand As Long) As Boolean<br>
<br>
But when I try and run it, I just get the error message about "Cannot find DLL Entry Point". So what do I do? Is there a web page somewhere that gives the declares for all these api functions, or are you just supposed to know them?<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
Jon

Not much help but...<br>
<br>
There is an excelent book entitled (I think) "The Visual Basic Developers Guide to the Windows API." I think the author's name is John Appleman. I don't have it with me but have borrowed it several times.

Cheers, but the reason it didn't work was that it's only included with WinINet that comes with IE5, and I am using the version that comes with IE4.

I don't suppose you have an example of downloading a file using wininet?

My VB skills are ok, but i've barely had any experience with APIs. I've been looking round the internet for a good example but havent found any yet.

Any help would be much appreciated.
