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 Public Function DownloadFile(URL As String, LocalFilename As String) As Boolean Dim lngRetVal As Long lngRetVal = URLDownloadToFile(0, URL, LocalFilename, 0, 0) If lngRetVal = 0 Then DownloadFile = True End Function Private Sub cmdGetFiles_Click() 'example by Matthew Gates (Puff0rz@hotmail.com) 'http://username:password@www.vbusers.com DownloadFile "https://25354293:002373@URL, "C:\Temp Files\22006.txt" End Sub The URL for the file is a sub url of the member login page: Main Page: http://www.vbusers.com Login Page: http://www2.vbusers.com/weborder/welcome_lookup.asp Page With file Links: https://www2.vbusers.com/weborder/Assets/22006.txt" Any suggetions as to how I cna login and than download the file?
