Internet Transfer Control

[pgrimes]

Hi,

I'm working on something to check an ftp site for the existence of a file. If it exists, I want it to be downloaded.

I started messing with the ITC (internet transfer control). The only information I've found about it is from a VB 6 reference. It seems some things have changed with the ITC in .NET.

I can successfully connect to an ftp server like this:

Me.objInet.Protocol = InetCtlsObjects.ProtocolConstants.icFTP
     Me.objInet.RemoteHost = strRemoteHost
     Me.objInet.UserName = strUserName
     Me.objInet.Password = strPassword
     Me.objInet.OpenURL()

I'm having trouble getting directory/file info. From what I've read, I this:

Me.objInet.Execute(, "DIR")

Returns the names of all files in the current directory. I don't get an error from that line, but I'm unable to get a visual representation of the directory listing. I tried to assign what is returned to a Rich Text Box. But it seems that the method is returning an object, not a string. Also, it doesn't seem to have a "toString()" method.

Can anyone point me to some readings on the ITC for .net, or point out what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,

Paul
