I don't think this is what he wants though. He wants to send a file from
his server to a FTP server, not to the user. As far as I know, Bimal,
this is not possible. However, you can use GetTempFile() and use that
result for your filename. I believe the OS will auto clean up the file
later, or you can just delete it after the upload.
