I am new to both Putty and WinSCP. So can somebody tell me what the difference is between these two? And when should I use each.
Thanks.

WinSCP is for file transfer to and from your server while PuTTY is used to interact with the server directly. Putty is just a command line interface to your server. WinSCP is a file transfer application using Secure FTP.
WinSCP can open its current session in PuTTY. If that's what your question is about (it's pretty unclear). Go to Commands > Open in PuTTY in the main window menu. You can also open the WinSCP stored site in PuTTY using Manage > Open in PuTTY command on Login dialog.
WinSCP can easily open site in PuTTY from its Login dialog. Use Manage > Open In PuTTY command or Ctrl+P shortcut.
