Hi Mark,

>>Can anyone shed some light on this matter or tell me of another resource to find answers? Perhaps this isn't a good enough or flexible enough control; perhaps I need to purchase a third-party or find a freeware control which helps me accomplish the above.

Others may jump in here with help for the ITC, but meanwhile, I can enthusiastically recommend that you try the free xxIPStuff classes from www.west-wind.com. I have used them for several FTP projects and have had great success with them. Support is readily available at www.west-wind.com/wwthreads.
