Thanks. What a waste of six hours :( The test app worked just fine, so I just spent about six hours playing with my app, changing this and changing that and comparing all the properties between the ftp component in my and your apps, and it still didn't work. In the end I created a new app to send to you as an example of my problem, but that worked ! So I copied my code to the new app and that worked too ! So I then deleted the ftp component in the original app and then put it back, and that worked too.
So it seems it was delphi that was messing about, and now all working fine. regards David ############################################################ David Rose Navigator Systems Ltd, Network Business Centre, 3 Gloucester Street, Bath, BA1 2SE,UK Main Tel: +44 (0)7000 NAVSYS (628797) Fax: +44 (0)7000 NAVFAX (628329) Company Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Private e-mail on request) CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE The contents of this e-mail are confidential to the ordinary user of the e-mail address to which it was addressed and may also be privileged.
