Thank you for you answer.
I need to tell you more of what I'm trying to do.

I am using Javascript in a asp page on the web.
I locate the xls file on the system and hold the
location in a var like the foxpro getfile()

Next I need to compare this file to a table in the sql.
I was going to send it to sql and do the comparing there,
but now I think I want to send it to a temp dbf on the server
and use a foxpro com to do the work.

How to I send the xls file to my temp dir on the server, knowing
the location of the xls is variable.

FTP?? or something.

Thanks,
Doug
