msaccess file transfer

Hello There,

i just like to ask if how to do file transfer in msaccess 2007..
i would like to send csv file from my local pc to a remote server..

any idea?

glen.a

ftp server?

hi westconn1,it is not ftp server..just a windows server..i would like to put my csv file in the given directory inside the folder..

how do you connect to the server now, just http on port 80?

actually westconn1,right now i still dont have an idea on what to use to connect to a server..if you have a sample code there in how to connect to a server you can post it here..

btw,i see FileCopy() method in ms access is this method can copy file and send it to remote server using internet and vpn?..

no filecopy only work on local and lan drives

there is no easy way to copy files to web servers, as they are protected, unless they have a file upload page, but even then, i do not know any way to automate an html file input
if the server has ftp access then there is some simple code to do what you want

there is some code in the vb6 forum to upload files, but i was never successful at making it work, which may have been a problem with my server, this would indicate even if it did work it would be server dependent

hi westconn1,you mean there's no other way to send file to a remoter server,unless using ftp?..

pretty much

why would web servers want you to dump your files on them, those that do provide methods to do so
