FtpFindFirstFile returns blank file name

[lunow160]

I am converting an FTP class that I was using in VB 6 to Visual Studio 05. I have been able to successfully connect to the FTP site by using the InternetOpen and InternetConnect API calls. After connecting to the site, I want to grab file/folder attributes of files/folders on the FTP site. To do this, I use the FtpFindFirstFile API call. However, whenever I call this function, the call always returns an empty cFileName in the pData structure. (A WIN32_FIND_DATA structure) I am using the below function call.

hFind = FtpFindFirstFile(hConnection, "*.*", pData, 0, 0)

Does anyone have any ideas why this would be the case? I run the same code in VB 6 and the FtpFindFirstFile API call returns the folder name just fine. Note, NO error is thrown when I run this in VS '05. So... any ideas?

Thank you.

By this I'm guessing you mean VB.NET 2005

What is the .NET code that you are using?

Hi Hack,
I've since went to strictly VB.Net 2005 syntax. My post here was a last resort since I was unable to find virtually any documentation on this. I have started a new post under the .NET forum location that contains a different question. If you would like to close this thread, please do so. I gave up trying to convert and run the 6 API code.

Thanks,
Matt.

Probably a wise move.
