I used an FTP example from KPD-Team...

then I've compiled this code to AcitveX DLL and in my VB.NET solution add as a reference. To connect via FTP i'm useing such a code:
Visual Basic:
        Dim c As FTPExplorer.FTPLibClass
        c = New FTPExplorer.FTPLibClass()
        c.InternetOpenType = FTPExplorer.typeInternetOpenType.Preconfig
        c.OpenConnection(Adres, User, Password)
        If c.hConnection = 0 Then c.ShowError() : Exit Sub
        ListView1.Items.Clear()
        Dim r As String
        Dim picInx As Integer

        r = c.GetFirstFile("*.*")
        Do While r <> ""
            If c.FD_ItemType = FTPExplorer.typeItemTypes.Directory Then picInx = 1
            If c.FD_ItemType = FTPExplorer.typeItemTypes.file Then picInx = 0
            If r <> "" Then ListView1.Items.Add(r, picInx)
            r = c.GetNextFile
        Loop
        c.CloseConnection()
executing of VB.NET code alweys stops on line r = c.GetFirstFile("*.*") or on line r = c.GetNextFile with the System.NullReferenceExpection (this is my favorite one :) ). I realy don't know what is wrong. One maybe two times this code run correctly. I supose I did a mistake in declaring 'c', or the code in DLL is coruped. I spend whole day to find out what is wrong... please help me
