Topic: Setting Directory property not working

I have been trying to change the working directory on the remote server using the .directory property, but I can't get it to change the directory to one I know exists. I have got around this problem when using Store as I can include the remote path with the filename, but this doesn't seem to work with .listing . I want to poll a remote directory to check the existance of a file, but I can't check any but the default home directory. This is the code I have used
'----------------------------------------
frmMain.Ftp1.ChangeDirectoryUp
frmMain.Ftp1.Directory = strRemotePath
frmMain.Ftp1.List

For Each lstEntry In frmMain.Ftp1.Listing

  If lstEntry.name = strFilename Then
    
    TestFTPfile = True

  End If
Next
'----------------------------------------

I have checked the samples and they don't seem to work ( I set the Remote path in the options in mListView but it always goes to the home path first)

Thanks and sorry this is a bit long.

Hi,
No, I have never experienced a problem with this directory. What does the Trace show when you specify a valid path in the ListView sample?
Example:
When I login to an account (Path is empty in the sample), there is a directory called "Dir1." If I then login with "Dir1" specified in the "Path" box, I end up in this directory.
If this is different for you, can you send info for connecting to a demonstration test account to support@dart.com?
