Hi,
Like I said the last time, this should go in the Internet Dev Forum, but that is dead, many more people go here and so I'm more likely to find someone who knows the answer. Ok, I'm using this to download a file from the internet...
Dim strCommand As String
Dim strWebPage As String
strWebPage = "http://www.desktopdriving.co.uk/driving/version.txt"
strCommand = "GET " + strWebPage + " HTTP/1.0" + vbCrLf
strCommand = strCommand + "Accept: */*" + vbCrLf
strCommand = strCommand + "Accept: text/html" + vbCrLf
strCommand = strCommand + vbCrLf
Winsock1.SendData strCommand
It works fine, but now I'd like to get the size of the file before it starts downloading so I can make a progress bar.
Any help much appreciated..
Regards,

In the Data Arrival Event, Check the Data Header and it should contain something like:
Content-Length: <bytes>.
So you could do a search for Content-Length: to get the value you're after.

Thanks Aaron! I didn't think of that (doh!)
