    WebClient OpenWriteAsync Not Updating File

    Hello, everyone! I'm using the WebClient class' OpenWriteAsync function, and I'm having a little trouble with it. I want it to write some information to a .txt file I have uploaded on my FTP. I made it display a message after it has completed doing so, and the message does indeed pop up. However, I've checked my .txt file numerous times, and it hasn't actually been edited. I'm wondering if someone could please help me out with this. Here's some of my code:

    Code:
    Dim otherclient As New WebClient()
    
    AddHandler otherclient.OpenWriteCompleted, AddressOf WriteCompleted
    
    otherclient.OpenWriteAsync(New Uri(URL))
    
    Private Sub WriteCompleted(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As OpenWriteCompletedEventArgs)
        Try
            If e.Error Is Nothing And e.Cancelled = False Then
                Dim FileStream As Stream = e.Result
    
                Dim Bytes() As Byte = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(txtTest.Text & vbNewLine)
    
                FileStream.Write(Bytes, 0, Bytes.Length)
                FileStream.Flush()
                FileStream.Close()
    
                MsgBox("Complete!")
            Else
                MsgBox(e.Error)
                Exit Sub
            End If
        Catch ex As Exception
            MsgBox(ex.Message)
                
            Exit Sub
        End Try
    End Sub
    Am I doing anything wrong or missing something? Thanks in advance!

    Re: WebClient OpenWriteAsync Not Updating File

    I'm sorry for double-posting, but I really need help with this. I've been looking online for help (with no luck), and I've tried numerous times to get this to work, but I keep experiencing the same problem: the program goes through with the entire process and says that it completed successfully, but if I check my FTP, nothing has happened.

    Thanks again in advance for any help.
