Get file from URL in VFP 5.0

Our application sends data to a third party's website who will manipulate it.
I've got this part working just fine by opening an instance of IE and
sending our data in the address.

But now we need to retrieve the data back from their server. Any clues on
how to get the file to our hard drive? We asked them to drop a cookie, but
they don't want to go that route. Since I'm working in 5.0 I'm not sure what
options are available. I might be able to convince them to display the data
in the browser window if that makes a difference.

Thanks very much in advance,

You can retrieve data from a website into a string variable using the
WININET control. Just drop a copy of the control onto your form and
then use something like:

ReturnValue=ThisForm.inet1.OpenURL("www.myaddress.com")
