Dear Mark, Thank you very much for your advice. It seems it solved my problem. I tried with a block of 2048 bytes and it passed easily the point where my program was timing out. Almost every time before it was blocking at the end of the same file. I was thinking if that block isn't too big (32 KB) and I tried with 16KB. And just before your message I decided to reduce it to 8KB, but it still timed out. Eventually maybe I would have decreased it even lower, but I didn't think this will solve the problem... And now the program just finished transferring all the files for the very first time :-) Best wishes to everybody, Nicolae "Mark Jacobs" <markj atty critical dotty co dotty uk> wrote in message news:40f6a51a@newsgroups.borland.com... > It may be that your block upload size is too big.
