How to preserve date & time of transferred files

Here's a great questions that was recently asked in the "FTP New User" section of the FTPplanet online Discussion Forums:

QUESTION:
I want to know if there's a way to preserve the file date and time when transferring from my remote location to my local location. When I'm doing a transfer, the files that are transferred to my local location is changed to the current time and date. Is there a way around this? Thanks in advance.

ANSWER:
WS FTP/Tools/Site Manager/Your Site/Edit/ Transfer/check box beside "Preserve filetime on upload" and "Preserve filetime on download" and then click OK.
