I am trying to create an application that will read a file containing cab files that are on a specific website. Then this program needs to use API calls to open a connection to the site, download each of the cab files then extract it and install/register the ocx active x control that is inside. Then once this happens it moves on to the next one. Can anyone give me some help/tips/pointers/code on how to do this. Thanks!
 
Hi sjschoengberger! No body reply your post. I'm facing something alike but not as complicated as yours. How did you solve your problem?
