That isn't an Indy function. It is a Win32 API function.
Microsoft also supports FTP with FtpGetFile() (no interaction)
or use the FtpOpenFile() and InternetReadFile() to report progress.
There is a fairly decent overview of the MS FTP here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384180(VS.85).aspx

InternetOpen()
InternetConnect() <-username and password here
FtpGetFile()
InternetCloseHandle()


if( NULL != (hInternetSession = InternetOpen(
			__argv[0],
			INTERNET_OPEN_TYPE_PRECONFIG,
			NULL, NULL, 0)) )
{
	hFTPSession = InternetConnect(
			hInternetSession,
			FtpServerURL,// ftp.MySite.com
			INTERNET_INVALID_PORT_NUMBER,
			Name,
			Password,
			INTERNET_SERVICE_FTP,
			0, (DWORD)0);
	if( NULL != hFTPSession )
	{
		bResult = FtpGetFile(
			hFTPSession,
			FromFilename,ToFilename,
		        FALSE,
		       	FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL,
			FTP_TRANSFER_TYPE_BINARY,
			0/*context*/);

		InternetCloseHandle( hFTPSession );
	};
	InternetCloseHandle( hInternetSession );
};
