Erm, well to be honest, the form example doesn't actually upload a
file, it just posts data to a server (I assumed that was what you
wanted to do).
So, Do you actually want to be able to upload a file?

Thanks for the reply Giles,
After sending my request for help I did come across the 'Get'
example and I was able to read the file into my app. The post form
example doesn't seem to work for me as adapted from the example in
the LR. Knowing just what is obvious in this topic, the example
seems to be uploading the data (form) to a script. If this is the
case I'll have to find a CGI script for this. Using a different
name to verify the file is uploaded, my test shows nothing in the
directory - I've searched all directories too. Maybe we are talking
about a different example the the LR. The one I was using creates a
dictionary, adds key and data fields, sets the HTTPSocket object
data to the form, and uploads to the specified address. I see there
is an HTTPSocket content, type method, is this more appropriate, if
how do I use it? Oh, in my test I get no errors reported. Is it
possible to do this without a script handler on the server side? I
would have assumed I need a logon name and password for this or is
that just FTP.

For downloading, try something like this:
Dim ht As New HTTPSocket
Dim theResult As String = ht.Get( "http://google.com", 2 )
Note that the 2 is the timeout value.
For uploading, use a post form like the one the in LR.
