The easiest is to have WinSCP generate the script for you:

I mean in Username and/or password.

i.e. if I use a / in my password it cuts it off

I tried to use winscp.com in command line, it showed the following error msg: -

You have to run the command from folder, where winscp.com is located. Or ensure that winscp.com is in search path.

If you want to automate the transfer, use scripting functionality:
winscp.com root:password@10.0.0.15 /command "put d:/esxupdates/updates /home/scripts/updates/"

For automation please read FAQ.

That works very well, but it prompts me if I want to overwrite the file. Is there a switch that can be used that would allow the command to overwrite without prompting? Also, is there a switch or someway to have it close the session when the command is completed?

option confirm off
exit
Please read documentation.

If you want to automate the transfer, use scripting functionality:
winscp.com root:password@10.0.0.15 /command "put d:/esxupdates/updates /home/scripts/updates/"

My friend Sebastian says that you can't do that on the command line.

I would like to copy a file from a Windows machine to a Linux machine(10.0.0.5). I thought maybe this would be a way I could do it...
winscp.com root:password@10.0.0.15 /synchronize d:/esxupdates/updates /home/scripts/updates

I also tried this...
winscp.com root:password@10.0.0.15 /synchronize d:/esxupdates/updates /home/scripts/updates /defaults

If /upload would work for my purpose, then that would be even better. I can copy the file by opening up a connection with the Linux server and then entering in the commands, but I would like one command-line statement to do this so I can put it into a VB program.
Thanks!
