Hi Jim,

For FTP'ing you can use FTP Class for VFP 5.0+ File #9442.
Here're a couple articles on CryptoAPI

>Our client wishes to begin encrypting files we regularly transfer to them. These files are generated on a regular nightly schedule by a VFP .prg run at night on my server. I had created a program that produces these .csv files, zips them and e-mails them to three people using CDO.

>They no longer want to get the e-mails. They want to encrypt with a public key and FTP to a drop box location.
>
>I am familiar with GPG, the open-source encryption program, and PGP (now owned by McAfee). However, these would require user intervention.
>
>I need to find a way to encrypt and FTP files programmatically. I have looked at the crypto FFC example and it is very confusing. I could not tell if you can do public-key encryption on a file with it or not.
>
>As far as the ftp part, maybe something from westwind would be the ticket. I don't need a lot of fancy functionality at this point, as it will be a simple (as simple as I can make it) .prg running on the task scheduler at night.
