Hi Michael,

I am new to the list - but have been playing with futurebasic for 
almost a year now - mostly to help a young friend get into 
programming.  He is in the middle of writing an Email client program 
and asked me to figure out how to use OpenTransport calls in FB. 
Ultimately,  I decided to construct my own OpenTransport stub 
library.   Perhaps this can help you with your problem (although, in 
the case of HTTP it might be easier to use URLAccess routines). 
Anyway, find attached a copy of my stub library as well as an example 
HTTP test program.

P.S. Forgive me if posting attachments is frowned upon.  I could not 
find a policy and procedures guide for this list.
