Help needed downloading a file to a folder

[Rodney Somerstein]

Andre,

Thanks for the quick answer. Using the correct URL does seem to help. ;-)

It seems to work OK now. Though as you state, I don't want that long 
pause while the file downloads. Of course, the next obvious question 
is how do I use the load URL command to the same thing? From what I 
can tell, load URL puts the file into memory. I then need to save it 
to disk but have no idea how to do so.

Also, I noticed that instead of ending up with a binary file when 
using put URL, I actually ended up with a text file with a .zip 
extension. It did unzip with no problem. I'm guessing I have to do 
some kind of magic to make the file into an actual zip file for Mac 
OS X?

Thanks again,

-Rodney
