Three other options:
- IN$FILE
- FTP
- Emulation's SEND/RECIEVE (which sometimes invoke IN$FILE and sometime FTP).

Another way,
Go to ISPF Command Shell (Option 6)
Then from the main Menu Bar of ur Mainframes window (File, Edit, View, Tools, etc etc ), select Tools - File Transfer which will open a Pop-Up window, there mention ur MF file name under the host file details and ur local drive details under the PC. Select TSO as Type and Text as Scheme and click on Transfer button after adding it to the list.

Atatched to the reply is a Screen shot of File transfer. Hope it helps

Archana_MF - What you have just described is emulator-dependent (see my third option below).
