    ; In this example, assume that a previous FTP upload failed,
    ; and the incomplete file (bigFile.zip) exists on the FTP server.
    ; You only need to set the RestartNext property to resume
    ; the upload.  When RestartNext is set, the next call
    ; to PutFile (or PutFileFromBinaryData, PutFileFromTextData)
    ; will automatically resume the upload from the point of failure.
    ; (The way it works is that the FTP component sends a "SIZE"
    ; command to the FTP server to find out how many bytes of
    ; the file already exist on the server.  It then begins
    ; uploading from that point.

    ; Note: After PutFile is called, the RestartNext property
    ; is automatically set to false.
