Hi there

Can anyone tell me what the method of connecting to an ftp site with a username and password to retreive text files to place into a database locally on my machine. I have a program that will pick up txt files from various drives locally, manipulate the data and place into the database, but when I directed it towards the ftp site in question, my program crashed with a dodgy memory addressing error message. Can anyone help?

Thankin yor!
