Rather than loading an RTF from my HD, I want to do it from my web site? Can any one help with this?

What exactly is the situation you'd like to see as an end goal? You have an application on a local machine, and it opens documents that are stored on another machine being used as a server? If you could describe the process you envision, we could provide more appropriate advice.

to be honest, what I am going at is I want the program to test to see if there is an active internet connetion, I was going to simply continuosly load a rich text file, that is located on my website, once it fails the program knows the connection is no longer present. This is the easiest way I could think of doing this. Any better ideas? or know code to help me execute this one?

How do you suggest doing this?
I know the ping command works in VB,
but I don't know how to analyze the results
