All,

You guys are GREAT!

The FTP piece I was missing was "BINARY" and where to put this command in the FTP command sequence.

It is now working perfectly and I am all smiles.

Thanks for the assistance.

Brad

Send the command BINARY before your GET command, otherwise the file may be treated 
as ASCII where  CRs are converted to CRLF pairs.  That will corrupt the file.
