Thanks CowboyAtHeart. I was thinking it worked that way too. My CuteFTP Pro is working on my old server that use just plain FTP but does not work on my new server which is using SSH2 SFTP Triple DES. This 'bug' is quite annoying.

My host has suggested that I use a text editing program that saves in Unix newlines and then just upload everything as binary. I would rather not do this.
