MSCOMM will push anything you like through the comm port; it does not have file transfer protocols built into it - it's a low-level comm port tool, not a high-level file transfer tool.
There are a number of comm packages for the VFP environment that have file transfer capabilities built in; you might try Hallogram (
www.hallogram.com) or ComponentSource (
www.componentsource.com) to look for an add-on package that does what you need.
