How can I upload a file to a server using VB?
Is there any in-built function or API that does this?

fine. but what if I want a standalone application to upload a file to a web-server.
Does ASP need to be involved everytime for uploads? Can it be done without that?
Thanks.

There are other options like ISAPI Posting Acceptors, CGI programs, etc. but they really all amount to the same thing.

The only common alternative is FTP, assuming there is an FTP service at the server that will let you put the files where you want them.

Thanks.

You're talking about uploading files from a remote client to a web server, so yes, there does have to be some sort of transport protocol involved.

Ok...I guess the ASP method seems better. Thanks.
