I use this wireless transfer all the time. All I do is use the
\\mycomputer\c\. I used the file explorer to access the computer I wanted
and copied down the path displayed then used the same format in the program
code.

'dim fpath as string = "\\mycomputer\c\" 'external computer file path
'dim fpath as string = "\storage card\

'Dim fpath As String = "\program files\communicator\setpath.txt"
'internal file structure

Dim sr As StreamReader = File.OpenText(fpath)
Dim input As String

input = sr.ReadLine()

sr.Close()

I can access two hardwired or wireless laptop computers.
Open/close/create/delete, it doesn't matter.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Thanks a million Armon. I tried it and it WORKED brilliantly. I read other posts on this newsgroup that suggested using stuff like webservers, FTP, webservices....

Im glad its only a couple of lines of code

Thanks.

It took a lot of research to find that little key. When I asked the same
basic question, I got a lot of sophisticated answers way above my experience
level.
