Repost Can Someone Please Reply: Internet Transfer Control (FTP)

[Richard Krupa]

Hi Guys,

Im using the Internet Transfer Control to download a file from an FTP site.
Is there anyway i can test how much has been download at any given time?

I can simply test the FileLen of the file in WinXP but on Win98 the file
gets downloaded into a temp windows file first.
(Ive got code that locates the temp file but whenever i FileLen it, it still
says 0kb unless i go find it in windows explorer and right click properties,
then it updates. Dont know why)

Basically i want to have a progress bar for users to see and a caption that
reads how much has downloadedand how much to go. I can get the length of the
file from the FTP site no worries, its getting the other part of the info,
actually how much has been downloaded, that is fustrating me.

Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Richard,

This newsgroup is for MS-Access (The database) hence (probably) your lack of
responses.
you will probably get more luck if you try another group
if you are using vb6, then you could try
microsoft.public.vb.genaral.discussion ?

Good luck!

cheers,
