Can I Use VB For Doing Simple FTP

[ctau]

Is their an easy way to FTP files inside of a Visual Basic Program? I basically just need to be able to login and put a file in a specific directory. Any ideas?

We use EZFTP from

http://www.coolstf.com.

Seems to work okay for simple stuff.

i tried to use EZFTP but it hangs on me. i tracked it down to this statement where the hang occurs...

FTP.GetDirectory(*.*)

any ideas?
