We have exchanged emails with TheFinder in the past, and that is why we have each other’s address ;-)

It would be a nice ITKE feature though.

P.s. If we find a solution with this test, it will be posted here.

@Carlosdl

How do we send emails to one another here? Did I overlook this feature?

E-mail me the details, and I’ll run the test.

In my program I just code for it to send the pre made file to my url.

2) do you have proper permissions (even though it is creating the file)?
3) try with the opposite kind of slash in the PUT statement”

Hopefully one of those will do the trick!

Not likely, IMO.

But this:

“If you are creating the file in the program, is it perhaps still held open when you get to the point where you are trying to send it”

is an excellent observation !

I agree, that could be the cause.

What happens when you try to send a different file that you program does not create?

I even called my Host provider and they couldn’t find any issues so I don’t know what to do now, but maybe for this project use VB-6 or 2005.

1) are you in the proper transfer mode (binary, AsCII)?
2) do you have proper permissions (even though it is creating the file)?
3) try with the opposite kind of slash in the PUT statement

Hopefully one of those will do the trick! :)

With Inet1
.URL = “ftp://www.mywebsite.org”
.UserName = “myusername”
.Password = “mypasscode”
.Execute , “PUT C:testfile.txt /testfile.txt”
End With
but at the other end is a blank file, any suggestions?

Thanks for the new ideas, this is something I can play with and hopefully something will find itself working. LOL. So far for me the inet does not work for uploading files, but only reading files and reporting back. Thanks again for your efforts.
