Specifies what type of file is being transferred.
Specifies what to do if the file specified in the HostFile argument already exists.
Use true to display the Transfer in Progress window while the transfer is in progress, or false to not display the Transfer in Progress window.
Transfers a file from the PC to the host using the IND$FILE protocol.

Example
This sample sends a file to the host. Before you run the sample, make sure the cursor is on a TSO command line.
void SendFileTransfer()
{
    Application app = MyReflection.ActiveApplication;
    IFrame frame = (IFrame)app.GetObject("Frame");
 
    IView view = (IView)frame.SelectedView;
 
    IIbmTerminal terminal = (IIbmTerminal)view.Control;
 
    Attachmate.Reflection.Emulation.IbmHosts.IFileTransfer fTransfer = terminal.FileTransfer;
 
    fTransfer.XfrHostSys = HostSystem.Tso;
 
    fTransfer.INDSendFile(@"C:\Users\Public\Documents\test.txt", "bvtst02.test7.txt", INDFileTransferType.Ascii, FileExistsOption.Overwrite, true);
