Hello,
	I was just looking at the new MDM714 program and found that the
overlay file for the max-80 (the one I own) is missing.  There was one for
MDM712 will it still work for MDM714?

				Thanks

Gregg,

I used the 712 version overlay for my Decision I with MDM714, and had NO
problems at all.  The whole idea of that overlay format, I think, is to
enable massive changes in the body of the program, yet leave the first
part with all the overlay stuff alone.  They even left a couple of spare
EQUs there for future growth, so until they eat that up, the overlays should
still be OK.

I like MDM714 for its excellent copy capability while the remote computer is
typing or scrolling data (I work with mainframes mostly, not with other micros
running Christensen protocol programs).
