Hi,

Have you had any luck? I'm interested in sending a file by FTP.
How did you manage to do that?

The lazy mans option is to get a telecommunication program that allows
scripting (like Kermit 95). Write and debug the FTP script manually. Then
pick a cell in the spreadsheet and insert a hyperlink to the script file (not
the external server). Clicking the cell will cause the telecom script to
execute and complete the transfer.

From VBA, assuming the link is in A1, the transfer would be accomplished by:

Range("A1").Select
Selection.Hyperlinks(1).Follow
