Saw your msg on INFO-CPM. I DO have Word* 3.0 -- AND SPELL from SIMTEL20. WHAT auto-correction feature?? Also, re downloading to a PC - if the problem is moving binary files (especially that DICT.DIC) through your data channels -- I solved that (moving through an ornery TAC) with HEXIFYing it to ASCII, moving it down, using Word* to break the HEX file up into memory-sized (about 40KB) segments, MLOAD (or LOAD)ing it back to Binary, reassembling the resultant .COM segments into a nice big DICT.DIC again at the micro, and then ITSCVTing it to strip the ITS-binary header. Worked just fine! (Though what a kludge!) Regards, David Kirschbaum Toad Hall
