Do you want to download a file from a FTP-server, or copy a file in your LAN using the filesystem? In the first case; Is the remote PC an FTP server? Can you reach it with a tool like CuteFTP? In the second case; You'll need code to recursively copy folders and files.

Thanks for the reply , well i was trying to download file :cool: from a machine on the local network, Cute FTP even cannot access it. thanks i think so i got the answer , but anyhow is it possible that we user FTP on a network, what is proffered to copy files on a network , i used File Copy API at last.

FTP won't work unless the server you're copying from is running an FTP server. If this is a local network, I doubt it's runnig FTP. You're more likely copying files from a shared folder on the server. To get at those, you simply have to supply the normal File copy method and supply either a mapped drive letter path to the source, or a UNC path.
