 RF> How can I get existing files from the online file bases into my own file
 RF> base without having to wait until a node is ready to send new files

You can't. When a node hatches a file it will be sent out to all nodes
connected to the area. That's the way file echoes work. There is no
option to rescan files. In a few cases there is the option to "%resend" a
file but those are the exception.

If you are connected to any file areas you will get new hatches.

You can import any files you'd like but you'll have to get them
somewhere. telnet, web and ftp are all your friends in that case.
