Hi list, There is a sharware FTP program available on the internet known as WS_FTP. This programme runs on NT/98/2000 machines and connects to variety of OSs including Solaris. I can send it to interested persons. The size is only 330kb Regards, Sivanath Babu Automation Engineer Abu Dhabi Oil Refining Company UAE ----- Original Message ----- From: Sascha Wildner <swildner@xxxxxxxxxx> To: <foxboro@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, February 15, 2002 7:45 PM Subject: [foxboro] AW: Foxdraw File Converter > > If you use Exceed 7 (the feature was included in Exceed 6 but it didn't seem > to work properly) there is the Hummingbird Neighborhood extension to the > Windows Explorer which uses the FTP protocol.
