How to save a file in the server and not in the client

[Andviv]

Hi all,

I need to create a VB application that creates a file, lets the user work with that local file, and when the user hits a "send" button, this file has to be saved in a remote server. I think the only service I will have available in that server will be the FTP.

How can I use an FTP (and, if this ftp software is free, even better) from VB and make it save the file to the server?

Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions,

Have you tried using the Inet control? It supports the basic FTP operations and the following thread: thread222-267512 shows how to create a directory and to put a file into that directory.

If you need a binary transfer, or have embedded spaces in your filenames, then you'll have to use the FTP API's. Good Luck

Thanks, that looks just like what I need. I'll give it a try.

Thanks again,
