Hi all, major hair pulling.

Trying to implement a live update facility and have major problems at every 
turn.

Firstly I need to dynamic wininet.dll - which i've posted about previously.

Secondly i need to file transfer via http rather than ftp.  The update 
server is http not and ftp server.  If i open an Internet connection, via 
InternetConnect with the flag INTERNET_SERVICE_HTTP, is it possible to use 
the ftp related wininet functions i.e. FtpSetCurrentDirectory etc or do i 
have to use the http related ones?  If so, any pointers on this.

I could really, really do with some helpful pointers on this.

Many, many thanks in advance,

Mike C
