hi, CP/M to DOS exchangers as I have seen in my use of CP/M machines are computer dependent, so what's written on one machine will not/may not run on another. I have a TRS-80 4P and am capable of reading the formats of almost any CP/M machine due to the software that was written for my machine. Another piece of software was written (also computer dependent) which allows me to go back and forth between CP/M - MSDOS (several versions) and a TRS-80 operating system in any order. Off hand CP/M-86 has a conversion program and that was on a Zenith-100 computer, but I don't think that was computer dependent. There's also one written for the Commodore 128 CP/M which is built into the computer's CP/M mode, which only allows you to read other CP/M formats only. For the generic Commodore there's "Big Blue Reader", which also reads MSDOS disks according to what I've heard. Under the Osborne FOG library, there's a program called PCPIP and other programs which copy between MSDOS and CPM, but I've never really played with them due to what I had. By the way, what kind of computer do you have, maybe I could help if I knew at least that much, or maybe someone else could help, worth a try... ..................................................................... :<< SonicDruid@sctnve.bitnet >> ============================ : : \\ Cyber Lab Consultant // : : Etop Udoh ->> A2 <<- \\ & Tutor & // : : \\ Computer Operator // : : //!\\ \\\\\\\\ ==================== : : // \\ !!
