' 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.
ftp.RestartNext = 1

' Upload a file with restart.
localFilename = "bigFile.zip"
remoteFilename = "bigFile.zip"
