Thanks Lorin and Erik.  I'll give this a try.  One lingering
question.  The data files I am interested in transferring are binary
files.  After the call to:

        Object theO = theURL.getContent();

What is the import of testing whether theO is a an instance of
string?  Will it be a string even if the data is binary?  Is this just
a test to see whether anything at all was returned?  If I know
beforehand that the data is binary, do I need to do this test.

And so on...

Thanks,
John
