Dear forum i need your help

I created a sub which copies files from a network drive to local
harddisk with packet-size of 128bytes every 100ms.

We have here some 64KBit/s lines and want to copy a big file (13MB) from the network to local workstations.

So i use my function to reduce the bandwith used for copy the files.

-> So the problem: when the transfer aborts (e. g. at 6MB), then i want to resume the transfer. I use the size of the localfile to READ-SKIP this value of bytes on the network file. If i do it like this, then every byte i do a 'skip' over the network to the source file, the network performance will use 100% (very big problem with 64KBit/s lines).

How can i set a file pointer to a specified byte in a file without reading out all the previous bytes from the file?

Please help - is it possible? WSH / VBScript.

Thank you very much
Martin
