In the dialog box that opens, navigate to your file or files on your local machine. Select the file or files you will upload. Press Open.

Note: When ftping files, you will not be able to delete or overwrite any files already on the ftp site. If you make a mistake that necessitates resubmitting your files, you should create a new directory in upload, give it a different name, and re-upload your files.
