Hello -

The Table browser can link files if you do not just wish to download and 
process them yourself.

Start with a base track (like mRNA), use output = "selected fields from 
primary and related tables", name file, and click on "get output". The 
next form will allow you to then link in the other tables and select fields.

A previous answer today has the path for a similar query that you can 
use as a template combined with the table information we have already 
discussed:
https://lists.soe.ucsc.edu/pipermail/genome/2010-May/022216.html

The Table browser user's guide has instructions for all functions:

Best wishes with your project,
Jennifer
