Rick;

Well, it's only an image I need to display with a table generated by VFP on the back end, so I guess FTP might be easiest. Of course, there is additional data which is picked up by my VFP application at the same time (name, email address, etc.) - I don't know if this makes a difference....

So... how would I go about this - what does my VFP app do with that particular file name and path once the user presses the SUBMIT button, in order to get it over to the server?

TIA

>>I have an application running on IIS, in which I'd like to grab a user file to place on the server (jpg images).

>>I understand how to get the user's local file path to the file onto a form, but how can I then grab that file from the user's PC? Should I be putting it into an FTP site using client-side logic, or shall I grab the file using wwipstuff and put it elsewhere?

>With a VFP application you have lots of options. If you have a Web application you can post the file to the application using the Internet Transfer Control or wwIPStuff, which is very easy to do. If you don't then you can use the Windows Posting Acceptor to post the file up to the server using the same VFP client tools.
