// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

loo_Ftp = create oleobject
// Use "Chilkat_9_5_0.Ftp2" for versions of Chilkat < 10.0.0
li_rc = loo_Ftp.ConnectToNewObject("Chilkat.Ftp2")

// Note: Your FTP Proxy server may or may not require authentication.
loo_Ftp.ProxyUsername = "myProxyUsername"

// The ProxyMethod should be an integer value between 1 and 5.
// If you know your FTP proxy server's authentication scheme,
// you may set it directly.  To determine the ProxyMethod,
// call DetermineProxyMethod.  A return value of -1 indicates a failure.
// A return value of 0 indicates that nothing worked.
// A return value of 1-5 indicates the ProxyMethod that was 
// successful, and this should be the value used for the ProxyMethod
// property.
