Personally, I'm very happy with the win32 API: URLDownloadToFile e.g. IF URLDownloadToFile( 0, "http://www.thewebsite.com/thefile.zip", "c:\mydir\thefile.zip", 0, 0 ) != S_OK Alert( "Error downloading file.") EndIf and here is the wrapper: _DLL FUNCTION URLDownloadToFile( pCaller As long, cURL As String, cFileName As String,; dwResv As dword, lpfnCB As long) AS INT PASCAL:urlmon.URLDownloadToFileA
A more specific example can be found in \wntk4hrb\ntkrad\activexdemo\flashdemoOO.prg Hope this helps. Ab
