>>>I use FileZilla to upload our setup files to our website via ftp, but there are lots of problems associated with that program. For one, when the upload gets interrupted, you have to start all over. That can be extremely annoying when you have waited for almost one hour and when the upload is 95% finished it stops and you have to start all over.

>>Jos gave you a great solution. Another one is the program CURL. It's command prompt based and can be spawned in another thread in a batch file which can notify your application when it's completed, by running a program which sends back a message to the thisForm.hwnd, which through BINDEVENT() will trap to your notification algorithm. It can notify on success or failure.

>Thanks, great alternative. Can it also notify on progress? That would be the hit.
Honestly, if you go this way then buy Chilkat FTP control and program this yourself, They even give you the VFP code to do it - the whole job can be done in a few minutes for a basic working solution or a couple of hours for bells and whistle solution.
