Download Code from an Internet Page....

[tranky]

Hi, i'm italian...excus e me for my bad english.
I've a problem.
I need to download the code of a web page, but the translation of many
character is invalid.
An example is "à" wich is translate in "?", ecc...., or is become a square!!
I need to import it from the web page but in the right character!
I work connected to internet and with access 2003.
The code i've used is the follow:

Dim oHttp As Object
Dim txtRequestStrin g, stringa2 As String
Set oHttp = CreateObject("M SXML2.XMLHTTP")
txtRequestStrin g = www
oHttp.Open "GET", txtRequestStrin g, False
oHttp.Send
txtHTML = oHttp.responset ext

in txtHTML i've the code downloaded from the page but it is made of pipe
(||||) or ?? or square. I need, instead, that the code was downloading
normally.

Excuse me for the english....in Italy, english's teachers are very bad....
:)

thank you

ps: (i can also change object to use if you find a different solution)

Re: Download Code from an Internet Page....

This works for me. That is, it downloads all the files in the server
folder to my local computer.
It also, (would be removed if not needed), produces a text/ascii
manifestation of the files, and for want of something better to do,
prints that in the immediate window. The text and ascii attributes can
be changed.

Conditions are (mostly a guess) that your server is all MS, that you
have the latest MDAC installed and, of course, that you have access to
the site (username and password). If you try running this code per se I
STRONGLY HOPE it will fail as you will be prompted for a user name and
password.

As always, ... news clients may insert line feeds which will create
syntax errors.
