try to find sample programs in VC disks (MSDN). FTP is very easy.

i have done... and the way i have written it works on the local network, but i have a router set up with 3-5 pcs on it and am using port forwarding, if i leave the ftp port at 21 it works fine, if i change the port to anything else i can connect and create folders etc, but cannot do file searches or transfer files... i need to have it on different port as i have upto 5 pcs to forward to... please help....

Open your MSDN -> choose Index tab -> Type: FTP Sessions -> Enter

my problem isnt how to use msdn, as i have been programming for 6+ years.. and have used it a fair amount in that time... i have downloaded some sameple programs from this site and they all have the same problem....
