I would like to find out how to make an http connection from VB6 without using a built in module. I just wan't code, an api call and function if possible. I need to be able to download a file from an in house site at work with out making the end user do anything. I have searched but everything I've found has had to do with the built in module in VB6. Any tutorial site that has this info would be helpful to.

Thanks in advance.

Never mind everyone I found what I need. Guess I didn't search hard enough. LOL

For anyone who is interested here is the code:

Private Declare Function URLDownloadToFile Lib "urlmon" Alias _
    "URLDownloadToFileA" (ByVal pCaller As Long, ByVal szURL As String, _
    ByVal szFileName As String, ByVal dwReserved As Long, _
    ByVal lpfnCB As Long) As Long

Private Sub Command1_Click()
' Note that this file is 2M, so you might want to try with something simpler
Dim errcode As Long
Dim url As String
Dim localFileName As String

url = "http://www.vb2themax.com/vbmaximizer/files/vbm_demo.zip"
localFileName = "c:\vbm_demo.zip"

errcode = URLDownloadToFile(0, url, localFileName, 0, 0)
If errcode = 0 Then
    MsgBox "Download ok"
Else
    MsgBox "Error while downloading"
End If
End Sub

This works with ftp as well as long as its anonymous or doesn’t need a password anyway. For example:
ftp://ftpuser:[email protected]/unzip.exe

Thanks again to Devx.
And thank you to the people here that have helped me in the past as well.
