Sorry, I am rarely clear enough with my questions.  Ok, if I get a file from
a file server that only has FTP connectivity, I can use this function to
return a value from the locally downloaded version of the file.  Unless I
can also get this value from the source file which is on the server, with
ONLY FTP connectivity, I cannot compare them to validate a complete and
uncorrupt download.

Could I also do something like this:   (I probably should try it)

get URLencode(md5digest(URL ("ftp://user:pass@"&;  pFilePath)))   ?
