Automate FTP download/delete

[Mark]

Here is what I am hoping to accomplish:
1. Connect to FTP server - I can do this.
2. Download file contained in the directory that I connect to.
3. Delete file contained on the ftp server.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all files are out of there.

Can anyone give me any direction on this? I know how to download a file if
I know the name of it before starting but I don't know how to download a
file and then delete that file from the server. This will ultimately be run
as a service so there should not be any user interaction. Any help would be
appreciated.

Thanks.
Mark
