Michael,

Well ultimately I'm trying to pull files from the ftp server from inside a stored proc on a SQL Server in a fully automated fashion. Does IExplore have a file copy method? Searching MSDN is such a futile effort I honestly can't believe that anyone at Microsoft thinks their search results are better than a pile of warm cow dung.
