>Now that I can actually create an ftp connection, how can I make use of an internet connection through a proxy server? is there also a simple way to do that in VFP code?

Currently working on FTP and HTTP connections with proxy servers. Checkout Rick Strahl's articles at http://www.west-wind.com/articles.asp.

To summarize what I've learned about FTP and HTTP with proxy servers. FTP does not offer the flexibility or features available with HTTP to deal with proxy servers. I've had no luck connecting to an FTP server from behind a proxy server. Currently converting my FTP file update code to use HTTP.
