Hi All.

This seems easy to do if I download the free apps, but can it be done using 
intrinsic VB6 and API.
Please bear in mind very little (as in none) experience with internet Stuff.

I want a VB6 app to upload a small text file to the internet (Where? I don't 
know)
Then I want another VB6 app on a different PC to check for the existence of 
the file and download it if it exists.
I don't want to bring up internet explorer or whatever.

So the first question is - Where does the file go? How can I use VB6 to 
upload it?
I have no web site, and I am clueless about how to do one.
Can it go on the cloud? (clueless about that as well)
Then it's how does the second app check for the file and download it?

I'm Hoping someone somewhere can at least point me in the right direction.
Sample code would be great :-)

Thanks for reading

Ivar
