I particularly like the file download example in the CTP:

CLEAR
LOCAL x AS NET4COM.INetwork
x=CREATEOBJECT("NET4COM.Network")
? IIF(x.IsAvailable(),"Network is available","Network is NOT available")
? IIF(x.Ping("localhost"),"Ping successful","Ping UNseccessful")
? "Downloading file..."
x.DownloadFile("http://foxcentral.net","_output.txt")
?? "Complete."
MODIFY FILE _output.txt
ERASE _output.txt
RETURN

Downloading files has never been easier.

If you examine the VB Source however, a small giggle always comes to mind
when you examine VS2005 autogenerated code in the assembly which
automatically inserts the line:

' This code was generated by a tool.

Mmmm! The mind boggles - no comment.

Besides the wrapper there is the list of Activex controls that will be added
to the system. Has anyone used the DBI controls and do you think they are
worth looking at now or should we just wait for the few free ones?
