I usually create a socket, while at the same time I have a server listening at my PC (sometimes using a simple winsock vb object, other times Apache. This involves using a network of course.
Erel provided a nice general solution, with b4a server. Have a look, here: http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4andr...ise-house-android-applications.html#post53629

You can also use SMB library. This is the standard way to access network drives in Windows.

No.

The SMB library doesn't support printing.

now to send a file from your PC to Android with smb how can I do?
thanks

maybe the best solution is to use DownloadFile in smb?

You should use SMB.DownloadFile to copy the file from the pc to the device.
