    Like in example 3, you can download it with ftp and pass it to the stream object

    The above code is c # code, but below I share an x ++ code that does the opposite. You can combine the two and write your own code.

    You didn't share what's not working. What error are you getting.

    Or let's just forget about the other codes for now. Our aim is to download the file from ftp and assign the data to the stream object.

    You already have a code that downloads the file from ftp. The rest is using stream, rather than recording. If you share your code, I can help you how to assign.
