Per your advice, I tried wwipstuff and it works beautifully! Thanks for the assistance!

>Take a look at Rick Strahl's wwipstuff tools. I haven't done this but I believe you can use wwipstuff to grab a file using HTTP. If not, you can definitely use FTP which is faster anyway.

>>I'm trying to provide users with an option to directly download a file via a menu selection from within VFP. I'd like to have a pre-designated URL including path and filename. Is there a way to do this? Is there a way to precisely direct where the file should be saved on the target machine? Can you set VFP to automatically overwrite any pre-existing file of same? Enough questions? ;-)
