Still not working for me I'm afraid. FTP is turned on. I also have the
firewall on. Do I have to specify a port? Is it because the file I
want is rtf? Do I have to invoke some sort of library in Rev?
on mouseUp
get url
("ftp://me:password@where/users/me/Documents/Miscellaneous/Envelope
Template.rtf")
put it into fld "x"
end mouseUp
