Please where can I get a routing for transmiting files from client to server in my client/server application?
I am writing a client/server windows program using winsock. I need to trasmit files from client to server. Initially I wanted to use transmitFile function , but discovered that there is no corresponding receiveFile function. Someone suggested that I use ftp. So I wish to know where I can get a smple code fortransmitting files from client to server and vice versa, and perhaps in addition a where I can get a custom ReceiveFile function that can work with transmit file function.

How about FTP Client Class?

On the server, just enable and setup FTP. It's a standard service in Unix and Linux.

In you client/server application? ...that sort of implies you already have an application that can transmit data from point A to point B, in which case, sending files is just like sending any other type of data. If you have a socket established, all you have to do is load up your file (probably in chunks) and transmit it across the socket.
