Rusty,

There are, of course, many ways to do this.  One of the easier ways is
to use the Internet Transfer Control, one of the MS ActiveX controls you
sould get with Access.  I've got a demo for its usage on my website. 
The demo uses http, but you should be able to easily change it to ftp
instead.  Go to my downloads page and look for "Get Web Document Demo".
