Well, a couple of things. First, once you FTP a file to another machine, you only sent a copy of it. You still have the file on the local machine, unless you deleted it.

Second, you can't make changes to the FTP'd file. You would have to make changes to the local copy, and then re-upload it. However, if you can connect that FTP location as a network share instead, then you could modify it directly. I think that was outside the scope of your question, though.
