I'm using FTP suite and it works quite well.
The sequences are indeed there do a whole transfer sequence from login to
logout.
Just create a ftpSessionClass, populate it with the right login values, set
a folder add file names, then issue a start command and all that should be
left to you is monitoring the process via the ftpStatusClass
The trick is passing a session id when you create a session, so when a
status is returned via the status class, you can know what transfer process
this message belongs to.
Another trick is to control a whole session with a thread, that way you can
even do many transfers or FTP commands at once via multithreading.
Granted the whole thing isn't all that intuitive to use as compared to using
sockets in RB or other ways in VB, but it also allows those who need it even
more control over the process by using individual FTP commands.
I too felt that I wasn't working the way I was expecting it, but after
taking the time to figure out how the demos worked, I found ways to do
everything I wanted to do in a matter of hours.
Also don't hesitate to check all the support options on their site, the few
times I needed support, I got helpful answers there.
