This problem has already been discussed in the forum: take a look for example at this thread.

Also, if there is no particular reason to use DataSocket, you could use CVI native FTP functions.

Unfortunately CVI6 has not native ftp functions: they were introduced in version 7.

Internet capabilities can be added to CVI together with other functions like networking and so on with the Enterprise connectivity toolkit, but it's better that you contact yout NI representative to obtain availability and quotation for your version of CVI.
