Answer 2

I've tryed to use it and I get a SIZE not implemented or unimplemented exception. Any idea's why? I use the same array I used to find the filename so I am passing the correct string value.

Size(file[i]).ToString()

This should give me the size parse into a string correct.

Answer 3

That's because the FTP server you are talking to doesn't support the SIZE command - it is an FTP extension.

You could try DirDetails instead

Answer 6

Ftp server must not support that either.

FTPFile[] detail = ftp.DirDetails(".");
for (int i = 0; i < detail.Length; i++)
{
printDetails = printDetails + detail[i].ToString() + " \n";
}
label1.Text = printDetails;

Get exception "VMS OpenVMS 'Version' node on 'it lists my domain' "
something like this.

Answer 7

VMS isn't currently supported.

Ftp server must not support that either.

FTPFile[] detail = ftp.DirDetails(".");
for (int i = 0; i < detail.Length; i++)
{
printDetails = printDetails + detail[i].ToString() + " \n";
}
label1.Text = printDetails;

Get exception "VMS OpenVMS 'Version' node on 'it lists my domain' "
something like this.

Well I am still greatful for your tool. It gets the file there. My only issue is error checking. How do I know that their is data in the file. I can see that the file made it with the Dir() method, just not sure if the contents made it.

You could get a full directory listing from Dir and check that the size of the file isn't 0.
