hello !

i'm using xitami for some months now. i started writing cgi with visual 
basic and it works perfectly (with no knowledge of programming in VB --long 
ago i did some programming in cobol and fortran). Xitami even parses the 
form fields so i don't have to do it myself! (i tried the well-known 
win-cgi.bas but the object code was some 120 kB, but when using only the 
needed statements the object code is only 15..25k)
i'm even writing a complete order administration (written _years_ ago and 
ported from quickbasic).  It can search through 12000 records, send e-mail 
and faxes and generate output in less than a second.

But there is nobody posting messages about VB cgi (indeed it works very 
well so you expect no reclamations and questions). Are some people out 
there also working with VB5.0? (maybe we could start an other mailing list 
so we don't disturb those using PHP...)
I have only one single question, but till now didn't find any answer: can't 
get any file download done. When checking the files on the server just 
after a download i don't find any file that contains anything that was 
downloaded.

You can mail me directly <marc@verfaillie.com>


Thanks,

marc
