Ive found a solution. Visual basic offers functions that use the 'Internet
Transfer Control' which can communicate with remote server and manipulate,
put and get files to and from it as well as other interesting things.
If anyone is interested do a search on Microsoft website for 'Internet
Transfer Controls' Here is a link to an excellent downloadable example which
pretty much does everything I need

Happy programming
