Sorry Jim I was a little to eager I guess because I used a existing
dir, by making a new one as you mentioned everything works great.
Thanks a million for all the help !!!
Know to find a way to automated the thing ! Eather by batch files
although I donīt think the downloader works with batch variables. Or
with some automate program.
I could do it the other way arround but I used ones a software but it
was not working smoothly.
