This is nothing unusual that your company is still using older FoxPro versions. I don't think you need to apologize.

Almost any WININET call that can be programmed in VB is available in VFP too, including FtpFindFirstFile and InternetFindNextFile calls. Check the following code samples (members area):

Retrieving list of files on the FTP directory

Downloading files from the FTP server using InternetReadFile

Using FtpCommand

FTP Class for Visual FoxPro application

Also you are not limited just to WININET library. A functional FoxPro FTP solution can be built using either Winsock control or Winsock API calls.
