This is what I'm trying to do.. I want to beable for my prgoram to to check the web for updates, but I dont want it do go though the FTP server of my home page, I want to download the image straight to the program for the http source.
ex: http://kenshome.hypermart.net/logo.jpg - I want to download this right to the program into a picture box.
Thanks to anyone that could help.
I am a beginner here myself, but I have found this method:
1. Add the component "Microsoft Internet Transfer Control" to your toolbox
2. Put one on your form
3. In your sub:
Dim b() as byte
Dim i as integer
b() = Inet1.OpenURL("http://kenshome.hypermart.net/logo.jpg
", 1)
i = FreeFile
Open App.Path & "\logo.jpg" For Binary Access Write As i
Put i , , b()
Close i
4. Point your picture box to this file.
I know this is a bit convoluted, but it should give you a picture of three coloured dots with the text "RGB Software" next to it! ;)
