Default opening ftp-file from macro

Hi, I want to directly access an excell-file on a ftp server from a macro, by
giving the username an password for the ftp-site within the macro. How do I
do this...?
I thought it was possible to put ftp:\\username:password@address in the
address and then everything should be ok.. but would you believe it, I still
get asked for the password..

regards Jahn

That format is not a standard - just some sites support it.
