It does not fire it. I placed a ShowMessage statement in the OnAfterGet
routine. It never showed and the file downloaded fine. I am using the Indy
10 version that shipped with Delphi 2006 Enterprise. Perhaps there is
another Indy update that I should be applying? How does one tell what
version of Indy 10 one has?

Ok. Thanks for that information. I will just simply not use the OnAfterGet.

Any time that I send FALSE as AResume to the IdFTP.Get routine, it sends an
EIdFTPFileAlreadyExists exception with the message "Destination file already
exists". Well, the file does not exist, plain and simple. In fact, the
folder to which I am saving is empty. If I change it to always send TRUE, it
works.
Now, if the file does indeed exist in the target folder, then AResume=False
does not give the exception.
So, I will just make sure to always use TRUE.
Thanks for your help. It is very much appreciated.
