lol Myrna

P.S.

I did download AceFTP but I din't see how to setup one computer as the server?

 
You need a FTP server todo it, AceFTP as far as i can see if a FTP client.

Try looking at these:

ServU
CuteFTP Secure FTP Server
BulletProof FTP Server

There are more out there just use google to search for them.

You will need to setup the server on 1 of the computers then setup an account for a user to be able to login, give the other person/computer the login details they should be able to download and upload files.

 
There is a good article on exactly this issue in Pc Magazine from Ziff-Davis that arrived in today's mail. "Sending Large Files" without email; issue dated May 18. 2004. Try online at
