How to pass data from VB5program over the internet to a server to me

[Periko]

Hello,

We have an application written in VB5. I use for the moment FTP to sent the text-file to our FTP-server (win2003server) and there i have a vbprogram that reads the textfile and treats it.

However, the vb5-application generates errors of still-executing-last-command-errors. I placed msgboxes after each step to create a sort of delay, but from time to time i have still this error.

Is there any other way to pass these data to our server ? Don't have to be ftp if other solutions exists....

You could use the internet control to POST the data to a program on the server (just like you POST form data from a form).
