winhttp

I am using a macro in Outlook VBA to submit a file via POST to a URL: Set http = New WinHttp.WinHttpRequest http.Open "POST", UrlToPostTo, False 'True ' http.setRequestHeader "User-Agent", "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0)" http.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "multipart/form-data; " http.Send data My problem is the page that will accept the request (a file upload page, in this case) is protected by authentication - the initial request for it above will return a login page instead of the page itself. I have tried to detect if the login page appears and if so, post the

I've been spending the last few hours trying to figure out how to save a file onto the computer using VBA. The code template below that I found on another forum seems promising, except when I go to the desktop to access it, the .csv file has what looks like the page's source code instead of the actual file I want. This may be because when I go to the URL, it doesn't automatically download the file; rather, I am asked to save the file to a certain location (since I don't know the path name of the uploaded file on the site). Is there any way to alter this code to accommodate this, or will I have

I want to set a proxy throught the command line, first thing I found out is that you have to run command line with administrator rights - then the basic proxy set would be: netsh winhttp set proxy SERVER:PORT This works nice, but I also want to add a login. As you can see I've tried using netsh->winhttp, however manual does not say anything about the login part so I just tried: netsh winhttp set proxy user:password@SERVER:PORT This unfortunately does not work. Is it even possible to achieve something like this in netsh->winhttp? If so, how? If not => what windows commands should I follow?

I'm trying to send payment data to SagePay and, as they are turning off SSL, it needs to be sent using TLS. The code I have is as follows: set httpRequest = Server.CreateObject("WinHttp.WinHttprequest.5.1") httpRequest.Open "POST", CStr(strPurchaseURL), false httpRequest.setRequestHeader "Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded" httpRequest.send strPost strResponse = httpRequest.responseText I've been told that adding an option lets you set the protocol used but the only one I've found is: httpRequest.option(9) = 2720 which allows for TLS and SSL but it can only be TLS, does anyone

According to the MSDN documentation WinHTTPRequest has four event handlers which should be accessible by specifying an event handler prefix. Unfortunately, doing so causes Windows Scripting Host to crash. The following code crashes Windows Scripting Host: Set oHTTP = WScript.CreateObject( "WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1", "oHTTP_" ) This code works just fine: Set oHTTP = WScript.CreateObject( "WinHttp.WinHttpRequest.5.1" ) Any thoughts as to why? It's not part of the specification in any way. Wishful programming rarely works. Creates and returns a reference to an Automation object. CreateObject

An answer to this question showed how easy it is to use WinHTTP via Type Library imports in delphi. I imported the type library for WinHTTP, and then tried to write a File Download helper function using that api. Here's how far I got: I can't seem to figure out how to save the IWinHttpRequest.ResponseStream (declared as OleVariant in the TLB file) as Stream, to disk. // IWinHttpRequest is defined by importing type library of WinHTTP. // Microsoft WinHTTP Services, version 5.1 (Version 5.1) C:\Windows\system32\winhttp.dll function Download(const url, filename: String): Boolean; var http:
