PLEASE HELP ME WITH FTP!

How do you use file paths that contain spaces with the INet control?

If the local file's path has spaces in it how do I use it with the execute statment? (Or is there another way?)

eg.

Inet1.Execute , "PUT C:\My Programs\myfile.htm \myfile.htm"

(ie. there is a space in the local file's path: C:\My Programs\

Also - I need to be able to reliably check whether the file was put up there!!!

Please help I'm desperate now!!

You can't use names with spaces but you can get the short pathname and use that instead.

EXAMPLE: GetShortPath("C:\Program Files") would return "C:\Progra~1"

Code:

---

'Generel Dec
Private Declare Function GetShortPathName Lib "kernel32" Alias "GetShortPathNameA" (ByVal lpszLongPath As String, ByVal lpszShortPath As String, ByVal cchBuffer As Long) As Long

'Function
 Function GetShortPath(sPath As String) As String
    Dim sBuffer                        As String
    sBuffer = String(255, vbNullChar)
    GetShortPathName sPath, sBuffer, 255
    GetShortPath = Left(sBuffer, InStr(sBuffer, vbNullChar) - 1)
End Function

Hope it helps.
