I have a problem.

I have looked at all of the articles i can find about FTPing from a VB program, but I am still unclear on how to implement it in the code.

The steps I want to accomplish are:

connect to a server (username, password)
go to a directory
put a file in that directory from the local machine.

i have a batch file that does this now but I am finding it hard to put those commands in VB. If any one has a simple explanation or code snipet I would really appriciate it.


Thanks

if you have an ftp batch, you could launch your batch from within vb or vba,...

syntax:

shell("c:\path\folder\ftp_batch.bat")
 
Maybe pass arguments to the API???....I'm not at all schooled in this but I know people who are and they say it's painless.
