Hi all,

First off, I found this site after searching for a few days and I wanted to thank everyone for providing such valuable knowledge of IDX. It's very refreshes and encouraging to have this available.

With that said, I am working on developing a custom website (developed in asp.net 2.0) that will provide custom searches and listings and so far I have the following questions:

1. What format is the data stored on the FTP server? I'll be pulling data from mibor and I am clueless on how the data even looks. Anyone able to provide a sample so I can start setting up my database schema?
2. Do the ascii files on the FTP server provide references for the location of the JPG's? I'm under the impression i'll download the jpg's from FTP, store them on the web server, and I will then have the path of the appropriate jpg stored in a sql table. When I run queries, I'll then have a solid reference to the file.
3. How are all of you going about getting the files to the web server/SQL box from the FTP? I can obviously easily do this using a simple FTP program from a normal workstation, but I would like this automated and performed from the web server, which will be a shared hosting environment. I also don't yet have a solution to schedule this.

Thanks for any insight that can be provided!

Thanks,
Keith
