FTP control for FVP 6.0 1

[jworley]

Hi,

Does anyone know of a good FTP control that I could plug in to a VFP application to perform background transfers of a simple text file to a Unix box ??

Any help/addresses would be much appreciated.

Jim,
The FTP/X control from

http://www.mabry.com.

They are VFP "friendly" by including VFP specific examples (not just VB code). I've also received responsive support when I needed it.

FWIW, I use the 2nd method I recommend in the above mentioned thread. I programmatically FTP to/from a Unix box on a daily basis, and it works sweet. Jon Hawkins

Jon,

The class sounds great & I have followed your advice and located it. However, I can't download it as there is some problem at their end. Any chance of emailing it to me as an attachment ?

TIA

Jim

Hi my friend
you may want to take a look at the class wwIPStuff.vcx from

http://www.west-wind.com/wwIpstuff.asp

It comes with very good documentation and FoxPro sample application, it is more than simple to use, for example this is all you need to get file from FTP server

SET CLASSLIBRARY TO GETFILE() &&// Or set the path what ever you see fit
Oftp=createobject("wwIPStuff.wwftp&quot
lcServer=ftp.SomeDomain.com
Oftp.ftpConnect(lcServer,"","&quot &&// The first arg is the user name, the secont is the password
Oftp.ftpGetFileEx('/walid/testauto.doc','d:\

http://www123.exe')

Oftp.ftpClose()

Hope this will help
