Can you give me step by step.

Ashok,

That should be normally prevented by the securitiy options. It should be
impossible without any user intervention, if that user has not loaded any
special software from you that makes that possible (what is of course an
action).

I hope that this gives an idea,

Cor

Is this through a VB app or ASP.NET app?

With VB.NET, I use two methods: You may use ftp connection or internal My.Computer.Net work.UploadFile/DownloadFile commands...
Public Sub Upload()

''Upload file

'Dim ftp As FtpWebRequest

'ftp = FtpWebRequest.C reate(Url & "/" & ReportFile)

'ftp.Method = WebRequestMetho ds.Ftp.UploadFi le

'Dim sourceStream As New StreamReader(Ap plication.Start upPath & "\" & ReportFile)

'Dim fileContent As String = sourceStream.Re adToEnd()

'sourceStream.C lose()

'ftp.ContentLen gth = fileContent.Len gth

'Dim fileBytes() As Byte

'Dim encoding As New System.Text.ASC IIEncoding()

'fileBytes = encoding.GetByt es(fileContent)

'ftp.Credential s = New NetworkCredenti al(login, pass)

'Dim requestStream As Stream = ftp.GetRequestS tream()

'requestStream. Write(fileBytes , 0, fileContent.Len gth)

'requestStream. Close()

'Dim response As FtpWebResponse = ftp.GetResponse ()

'Console.WriteL ine("Upload status: {0}", response.Status Description)

'response.Close ()

''Delete file

'Dim ftp As FtpWebRequest = WebRequest.Crea te(Url & "/" & UserFile)

'ftp.Method = WebRequestMetho ds.Ftp.DeleteFi le

'ftp.Credential s = New NetworkCredenti al(Login, Pass)

'Dim response As FtpWebResponse

'Try

' response = ftp.GetResponse

' Console.WriteLi ne("Delete status: {0}", response.Status Description)

' response.Close( )

'Catch ex As Exception

' 'Console.WriteL ine("Delete status: {0}", response.Status Description)

'End Try

'Exit Sub

Dim _Updated As Boolean = True

Try

'Url = "http://ftp.domain.com/folder/"

My.Computer.Net work.UploadFile (Application.St artupPath & "\" & UserFile, Url & "/" & UserFile, Login, Pass, False, 30 * 1000, FileIO.UICancel Option.DoNothin g)

Catch ex As Exception

_Updated = False

Debug.Print("UP LOAD USERFILE FAIL: " & UserFile)

End Try

End Sub
