Thanks Remy, but I have tried that and I still get the old
version of the file. I inserted this line before the Get():-

IdHTTP1->Request->Pragma = "no-cache";

I also tried inserting "no-cache" into the Request->Pragma slot
in the object inspector for IdHTTP1 but all to no avail.
I assume from this that I'll have to have a word with the website
host.
Thanks anyway,

David
