>Does anyone know how either through windows or the foxpro environment, to map a drive to a ftp site?

Mapping a drive letter to an internet address in general requyires that the site publish a share name and makes itself available to the network as a remote resource. Under NT, a valid UNC can be constructed using the format \\IP Address\share name\path relative to share; under Win9x, a mechanism needs to exist, either appropriate entries in the LMHOSTS file or a WINS server, that can resolve the IP address to a NetBIOS name so that you can the standard UNC notation \\server name\share name\path relative to share
