Hi Guys:

There is a download in the Files Section here at UT called FTP_CLASS which is a pure VFP wrapper for the above WININET.DLL. Speed is not great, but matches the shareware version of Rick Strahl's WWWIP_Stuff (haven't tried his full retail version), as well as matching or beating the speed of the Tcp/IP library FLL from Communication Horizons. Fastest by far of those I have looked at so far was Mabry, which has an OCX, but we didn't want to fool with the administrative and cost issues of registering the OCX on each client workstation...

HTH
