I want to make a FTP client using Visual Basic 6. For all my visual basic coding, i've been using this book. However, the book only tells me how to connect to a ftp url, ie:
Inet1.OpenURL (ftp://ftp.whatever.com)
but it doesn't discuss how i would go about connecting to a normal private ftp server that requires an ip address port number and username/password. Can someone help me out?
 
Hi,

I can never remember all the details to ftp'ing from visual basic. I download source code that was a simple ftp program and keep it around to refresh my memory and tend to use cut and paste for what I need at the time.

go to :
then search for ftp - msdn has sample code and explanations for you.

Hope it helps!
