Hello to all,
I have a need to dial into a bbs, respond to login questions and upload/download a file(s). I have used Banana Comm and Comit in the past, but these don't work with w2k OS. I would appreaciate suggestions on how to do these functions from within vfp 6.0 and links to samples if possible. Or any info on a small scriptible (must allow scripts for different customers) comm package.

Thanks for any ideas or suggestions.
 
you can make the connection with the use of windows rasdail functions. see faq184-2332 for a class that will handle that. after the connection yo can simulate the key strokes with the keyboard command in fox. this Places the specified character expression in the keyboard buffer Attitude is Everything
