Is there a solution to list the contents of a webfolder,
copy and delete files form it using user name and password
(https).

Thank You in advance

The HTTP protocol provides the PUT and DELETE commands for uploading and 
deleting files on a server. You should find out if your HTTPS server 
supports these commands, in addition you will need a directory listing 
(unless you already know the file name to copy or delete).

You can use the client-side components in Xb2.NET SSL to communicate with 
the HTTPS server and perform any action you like. To download the Xb2.NET 
demo, send an email to demo@xb2.net with subject "xb2.net demo"

Once you have the demo, have a look at the GETWEB.PRG sample. It shows you 
how to retrieve a file from the an HTTPS server.

Pintér,

Yes, but you need to know the format of WebDAV commands.  This is based
upon HTTP (HTTPS providing security).  WebDAV is an extension to the basic
HTTP commands of GET, POST, OPTIONS, HEAD, PUT, DELETE, TRACE, CONNECT.

I found the tests quite elementary.
