Basic parameters
In the Transfer Direction listbox you must specify whether you
want the file to go from the workstation to the host (Send) or from
the host to the workstation (Receive). If you select Expression, then
you must specify an expression (for example, a variable named $strDirection$)
that
at runtime resolves to either Send
or Receive
.

Name field shows the values that you should
use in the Host-File Name field and the Local-File Name field:
Remember that if you are using the advanced macro format the
backslash \ is a special character that must be written
