msinet.ocx

I was wondering how I might go about using msinet to collect a database off of the internet...

I am trying to just switch as little as possible from main database code which uses database.txt as source.

If someone could give me a pointer from this code on how to convert real quick I'd be greatful.:

Open App.Path & "\database.txt" For Input As #1
--How would I use a converted ver of that to receive database?

Very simple my young lad. Simply keep your existing code but add this in form_load or what not:

Code Select Expand


open app.path & "\database.txt" for output as #1
print #1, inet1.openurl("http://www.yoursite.com/database.txt')
close #1

I find it much better/easier to download the file from a site, then open it, then after delete it, if you want.

It may not be as fast, but it doesn't use cheap "allready made" sources  

--> I don't like stealing other people's codes

I'm tryin' to use as a cheap & simple auth script basically, not really a db...though I might want to sometime.

How might I be able to use the GetChucnk var for inet?
