Hi,
Here is a quick example. Add these import statements.
Imports System.Net
Imports System.IO
Sample code
Dim request As WebRequest
Dim response As WebResponse
Dim reader As Stream
Dim writer As Stream
Dim data(1023) As Byte
Dim count As Integer
Dim total As Integer
Me.Show()
Me.Text = "Downloading file ....."
Application.DoEvents()
request =
WebRequest.Create("http://www.onteorasoftware.com/downloads/multigrids.zip")
response = request.GetResponse()
reader = response.GetResponseStream()
ProgressBar1.Maximum = CInt(response.ContentLength)
ProgressBar1.Value = 0
total = 0
writer = File.Create("mylocaldata.zip")
While True
count = reader.Read(data, 0, 1024)
If count <= 0 Then
Exit While
End If
writer.Write(data, 0, count)
total += 1024
If total < ProgressBar1.Maximum Then ProgressBar1.Value = total
Application.DoEvents()
End While
reader.Close()
writer.Close()

I know that I can download a file from a web server by using the
WebClient.DownloadFile method. But, does anyone know of an example of
downloading a file from a web server with the ability to monitor the
download progress?
I'm looking for either the number of bytes downloaded and/or percentage
completed.
TIA
