texte = Hi Charles, I do a lot of different things with FTP and file manipulation, but I am a little hazy oh what you want to do. Perhaps it is my being up all night working. But if the file is on another server and you want to periodically check it and pull in any new information then you can use TCPconnect and do a WriteFile to store the data in a temp db to do a check on old data verses new. Or you could use a shell script and do a wget to get the file from the Server and move it to the new server. Something along those lines perhaps? If I am wrong about what you want let me know and let's see if we can come up with a solution.

This site is running on Mac OS X server under Apache. Anyone doing anything similar? I will be using WebDNA to post process the files once they are on the server.
