Get Directory Listing from FTP Server

I need to communicate with the FTP server to get a directory listing; the question is - HOW? I can pull files easily enough, like this:

Public Sub DownloadFile()
Set oXML = CreateObject("MSXML2.XMLHTTP.3.0&quot 'New XMLHTTP30
Dim b() 'As Byte
With oXML
.Open "GET", mURL & mDownload_FileName, False, mUserName, mPassword 'False is for async property
.send
Open mOutput_FileName For Binary Access Write As #1
Put #1, , b()
Close #1
End With
End Sub

Seems to me that if I can PULL a file, it ought to be fairly simple to LIST the files! But apparently it isn't, since no one knows how to do it! XMLHTTP doesn't provide a List or Dir method. I can do it with the INET control, but I don't much like using it. I found a class on the web that works using API calls (posted below); I have incorporated it into my code and it works fine - gets the directory listing, puts the filenames into a recordset, etc. But I dislike using code that I don't really understand; I prefer writing the code myself so that I know how it works, and so I can extend/modify it as needed.

An ASP guru from the Web suggested that I use the FSO and MapPath, but I don't know how (or if I can) incorporate ASP into my VB code. I feel quite certain there is some simple, 3- or 4- line code snippet to do this, and I'm hoping someone can tell me what it is. Thanks in advance.
