Beginner needs help fast! Copying from local to server...

[bella12]

Hi,

I'm on a rush and I don't know a lot in Access. What I wanna do should be easy (I guess...)

I have an Access application that runs locally on a computer. I want to add a button that will copy a local file to a server (using FTP...)... is it possible?

EX : copy c:\file.txt --> ftp://userass@xxx.xxx.xxx

If you have an answer for me, please let me know! It will be greeeeeeatly appreciated!

Thanks!
Bella

Ok. since no one has answered your question, I'll tell you what I would do.

I would create a dos batch file to do my copy work then I would put the following code on the button....

Shell ("C:\filename.bat&quot

this will execute the batch file that you created.
