Yes Nadya, You can invoke pcanwhere and run a script where you can define whatever you want including the upload and download directories. I had actually done that a couple of years ago with an older version for transferring of inventory levels before we starting using ftp. I had scripts for full automation as well as user prompts. I called it from VFP, but I do NOT remember how I did it now! (It figures! It was one of those 'do it once then forget about it' tasks I was assigned). Since we never had any problems, I never had to look at the code again. I'll see if I can find my code somewhere this weekend...
