Just use native FTP from your PC to your mainframe.

He says he has *only* "wc3270 or NOTEPAD++".
On my system:

C:\>where ftp
C:\Windows\System32\ftp.exe

I'd be amazed if all the standard parts of Windows are not there.

That's why I wrote we don't know what exactly is allowed in this scenario and what is forbidden. However this exercise seems irrational - I understand lack of budget and only free tools, but why only two tools? Maybe another constraint would be to disable right mouse button or "E" key? BTW: It is real. I did really work in a shop where right mouse button was disabled "for security reasons". And the host was accessible through some cryptic gateway, so IP address set up in emulator was not real host address. FTP was up, but the host was inaccessible. However IND$FILE was working.
So, I can imagine that built in ftp client is disabled. Why not?
BTW: Some companies deny to use any freeware. Everything you want to use have to be supported, etc. I'm curious how they explained use of internet browsers.
