Gary:

Have you checked the sample ctl32_ftp form? Check that form to see how the download/upload process status is updated.

You should update the upload/download status to the user in the ftpTransfer event, you can also use ftpTransferStart and ftpTransferEnd to setup/end the user feedback.

Since there is no callback capability in VFP, the ftpWriteFile and ftpReadFile adjust the size of the download/upload buffer so the ftpTransfer event fires about once every second.

The buffer size is also adjusted so the program does not seem to be frozen while it is downloading/uploading a file chunk.

Of course I want testing done! Please report back in the ctl32 forum any issues you encounter. Also I will gladly answer any questions you have. The more valuable contributions to the classes came from user comments and doubts, so don't hold back and post as much as you want/need.

Carlos
