Just did. For anyone else, I put it at http://www.wolfwares.com/AutomaticUpdater3.zip . Keep in mind, this is a specific project, for a very specific purpose. I've wiped the site info (address, username, password) from the 'settings' database, but other then that, the code shows what it is doing, so if you want to play around with downloading from an FTP site, unzipping (which you will need to purchase Winzip, and download the addon), multi-threading (using events to traverse the threads), making thumbnails, etc, then feel free to download and explore. (Everything but the multi-threading will work in Access) Drew P.S.--Sorry that I don't have many comments in my code, it's a bad habit I've gotten into with my personal projects.....since I'm not really getting paid for them, I save time by not commenting.....all the more fun to play with!

I ask, because I'd be more then happy to send you the source to the project I just finished, which you can probably use with just a little modification (including completely dropping the image copying and thumbnail creation). You can read the source with notepad, but it won't work correctly in Access 2000, since it's multi-threaded (downloads and unzips in different threads), so you'd have to filter through that code to use it in Access.

I have the address, username, password, and rights to create/delete from this site. I would like to automate this process in A2k. Anyone have any suggestions/directions on the FTP thingy?
