    I once made an ftp client totally based on Winapi. Can't remember it all now , but there was one winapi called sth like InternetSetFilepointer. It worked the same as the SetFilePointer. Not sure on how the target file had to be opened, but i think it was plane InternetOpenURL or i used one of the FTPCommand options. Anyway. It worked well. I just had to check if the target file already existed then used the GetFileSize . Easy stuff. Just remember to get a file handle by using the CreateFile api. For further info you can check out the msdn c++ reference or search in here. It does the job for you even i am not sure if u really wanted to use Winapis
