dim objInet
Set objInet = CreateObject("InetCtls.Inet.1&quot

with objInet
.requestTimeout = 900
.URL = "ftp://

http://www.myftpsite"

.Username ="temp"
.Password = "temp"

end with

objInet.execute ,"DIR -n > c:\temp\test.txt"

I've tried several times with different methods but still no results.

.URL = "ftp://

First of all Thanks for your interest..

Sorry but I did say that I'm trying to do this from an asp file.

Like this is not misleading!!!

Any help appriciated

If u are in asp page u have to use
Server.CreateObject("InetCtls.Inet.1&quot
instead of CreateObject("InetCtls.Inet.1&quot

I've tried it and it's not working either..
I'm getting desperate

Any other suggestions..!!

Do you know how I can run a batch file file.vbs or execute a command as if I'm typing it in Command Prompt..

Because the command works in command prompt but I need to be able to run it through my asp file or vbs or bat files.

Thanks for your help..

I just wrote an .exe in Visual Basic that pulled files from an ftp site. As far as I know, you cannot use the Inet object in vbs. It has to be used in VB.
