Greg Ewing [MVP #1 / 4	EOF check uzi, what class are you using in the IO namespace? If you are using a Read method on one of the stream classes many of them return a 0 or -1 at the end of a stream. Depending on what you are using you can use that fact to determine the end of the stream. If you can give more details we can help you with specifics. -- Greg Ewing [MVP] http://www.--*.com/ Quote: > Hi! > is there a way of knowing using System.IO if an EOF char > exist, i'm getting a file though FTP and i want to know > if the whole file reached befor starting to read it. > thanks, > Uzi

HJB41 #4 / 4	EOF check When getting a file from a FTP, the FTP closes the data connection and sends a 226 reply code when the transfer is done w/o errors. And that's assuming the FTP server has the complete file. With some file types, you can tell when you have the complete file or not (like executables) and for others, partial downloads will work (like most audio and video files). Other than that, you can't use EOF to determine if you have the whole file. You'll just have to compare it with the filesize of the file on the FTP Server.
