    if you're using vb.net 2.0, then the my namespace has a simple method -My.Computer.Network.Downloadfile http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp url=/library/en-us/dnvs05/html/MyWalkthro.asp

    I use this code:

    Bold -> Constant Variables

    Public Function exportFiles(ByVal path As String, ByVal username As String, ByVal password As String) As String
        Dim fso As New FileSystemObject
        Dim shortPath As String
        Dim iError As Integer
        Dim wkStr As String
       
        shortPath = ShortPathName(path)
        
        fso.CreateTextFile path & "\" & fileFtp
        fso.CreateTextFile path & "\" & fileFtpScript
       
        Open path & "\" & fileFtp For Output As #1
        wkStr = "%SystemRoot%\system32\FTP.EXE -s:" & shortPath & "\" & fileFtpScript & " " & ftpServer

        Print #1, wkStr
        Close #1
        
        Open path & "\" & fileFtpScript For Output As #2
        Print #2, username
        Print #2, password
        wkStr = "put " & shortPath & "\" & origFile & " " & destFile

        Print #2, wkStr
        Close #2

        Shell (path & "\" & fileFtp)
