Thank you Joseph and others... The tip about sslsvc.dll provided the solution. Though I explicitly provided the path to ftppro32.dll in the function declarations, I had no 'path' statement to enable the runtime environment to locate sslsvc.dll. (It appears that proximity of ftppro32.dll to sslsvc.dll [having both .dlls in the same folder] is not sufficient ftppro32.dll was 'found' once I had a PATH statement pointing to where sslsvc.dll could be found. Then I could put ftppro32.dll anywhere I wanted as long as the path was provided in the function declarations.
If sslsvc.dll can not be located, you will get the error 'ftppro32.dll not found'. Just temporarily rename your sslsvc.dll and see for yourself. I'm set for now - thanks to all who replied.
