My Amiga Extras disk has a set of utilities for copying and formatting PC disks, but they only seem to work with 5 1/2 in disks, is it possible to make them work on 3.5in disks?

Sorry to say, but those utilities only work on 5.25" 360K disks. There is a commercial program (here in the states anyway) called Dos-2-Dos that will work with both 3.5" and 5.25" MS-DOS disks. I use Dos-2-Dos all the time and find it a real handy tool for anyone who has to interface with the MS-DOS world. -- Dan "Sneakers" Schein {ihnp4|allegra|burdvax|rutgers}!cbmvax!heimat!sneakers Sneakers Computing 2455 McKinley Ave West Lawn PA 19609 Call: BERKS AMIGA BBS 24 Hrs - 3/12/2400 Baud Disclaimer: Any opinions expressed are 40 Meg -=- 215/678-7691 those of Sneakers Computing Of course heimat is an Amiga, doesn't everyone run UUCP & UseNet on an Amiga?
