Now that I gave you the "Simple" answer to your question and yes, "prompt" is a 
good thing to do, sorry I forgot to mention it, I now have a question or two 
for you.

Are you using your PC as a means of transferring the PDS from z/OS system A to 
z/OS system B  (Note both are "z/OS" for simplicity's sake) and you have no 
intention of modifying the data on the PC?

Do you want to maintain other PDS information or that it is a PDSe for the 
transfer?

The reason I ask is, it might be better to "TRANSMIT" (XMIT for short) the 
PDS/PDSe into a sequential file under z/OS, FTP the sequential file to your PC 
and transfer to the second system where you would use the RECEIVE command to 
restore the PDS/PDSe.

XMIT "node"."userid"  DSNAME('sys1.loadlib')  OUTDSN(sequential DSN) PDS

FTP to PC using a BINARY transfer of the "sequential DSN" to your PC
FTP to other z/OS system using BINARY and "QUOTE SITE RECFM=FB LRECL=80 
BLKSIZE=32720 PRIM=50 SEC=50 TRACKS"

On receiving system use the TSO command:
RECEIVE INDS(sequential DSN)
** you will get a prompt for parms reply with: DATASET(output PDS/PDSe DSN)

You first need to "CD" to the PDS data set, so try the following:

Lcd myload
cd 'sys1.loadlib'
mget *

Subject: uploading a PDS to my PC

Unloading a PDS to my PC I got the message that I had to use MGET Never have 
used this command using Microsoft FTP.
Using MGET  I got the message:

No data sets found

My command was: mget sys1.loadlib myload

I also tried  mget sys1.loadlib(*) myload

What's wrong with this command?

Thanks
