Sending docs with FTP would not rquire CGI programming.

You can do HTTP from inside fox. But I think FTP transfers are faster.

Have you run the sample code to download "Disclaimer.txt" from the MS ftp site.
1) You have to make the connection
2) Get through any security. I don't think uploads are allowed to anonymous sites.
3) Put is pretty straight forward.
3) Gets and Dir use GETCHUNK. Dir is helpful provide a list of files avialable for ftp download.
Study the ITC's StateChanged event. It may be a good idea to echo "state messages" to the interface during transfers just so the user knows somthing is going on. You may need Timer services to refresh a local list of available server files.

There is an article in the KB - I'll look for it - regarding WININET. WestWind is always a good resource. Maybe I can snip a prg that demos the ITC's features.
