iNet control

When I click on Command2 I get a "Run time error '35754'; Unable to connect to remote host"

What am I doing wrong?

Code:

---

Private Sub Command1_Click()
With Inet1
  .Cancel
  .Protocol = icFTP
  .RemotePort = 21
  .URL = "ftp.host.com"
  .UserName = "username"
  .Password = "password"
End With
End Sub

Private Sub Command2_Click()
Inet1.Execute , Text1
End Sub

---

Thanks,
Si

Doesn't it need ftp://etc.com?

Not sure but I still get the same error :(

Just bringing it back to the top........:D

You are using the Execute property the wrong way, I believe.


Inet.Execute "http://www.somewhere.com/index.html", "GET"

This means you have to click Command1 before you click Command2. Did you do that ??

Im using this for FTP.

Forgot to say
Text1 = "GET file.htm c:\windows\desktop\file.htm"

Active: Of course :rolleyes:

Are you sure you're using the correct address and login information? it worked fine for me..

Code:

---

Private Sub Command1_Click()
With Inet1
  .Cancel
  .Protocol = icFTP
  .RemotePort = 21
  .URL = "promasc.com"
  .UserName = "*******"
  .Password = "********"
End With
End Sub

Private Sub Command2_Click()
Inet1.Execute , _
"GET index.htm C:\Windows\Desktop\index.htm"

End Sub

Yep, im sure they are right, Ive check loads of times, And ive connected thru my FTP client and the host isnt down :confused:

I've had a simular problem once with the INet control.
Don't ask my why but try to asign the value from the textbox to a string and pass that to the Execute method.

Code:

---

Private Sub Command2_Click()
    Dim sCmd As String

    sCmd = Text1.Text
    Inet1.Execute , sCmd
End Sub

Best regards

That dosnt work either :(

It sounds like you might be using a proxy server. I get the same error when working behind a proxy. You need to set the Inet control to access the site through your proxy.

Try this way:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
With Inet1
.Protocol = icFTP
.RemotePort = 21
.URL = "ftp.host.com"
.UserName = "username"
.Password = "password"
End With
End Sub

Remove Cancel command...
