    Question Download XML file from the internet using VB app

    Guys, got a prob. I'm not a hardcore VB guy, but i need to get a demo app running for a proposal I'm working on. here's my prob -

    I have a client server application (done in VB6) - very rudimentary. Uses sockets to handshake and transfer XML files. What I now need is, convert the server VB application to a website that gives me the link to an XML file like so:
    Code:
    http://www.mysite.com/test.xml
    But since I am not very much at ease with VB (im a java guy), I want to know how best I can get the XML file onto my local hard drive. I heard that you can use an API named Microsoft XML v3.0, but I'm not sure how to implement this. Any ideas or tips would be greatly appreciated!!

    Oh, after doing some forum search, I got to know that a good way to proceed would be to use the XMLHTTP object. Is this the way to go?
