As far as I can tell, a CP/M wordstar file is nothing more than a text file with the upper bit significant on each character - in particular, a carriage return code (0d hex) is *hard* (starts a new paragraph), while a carriage return code with the high order bit set (8d hex) is *soft* (permissible for Wordstar to move during reformatting). Presuming Wordstar files under MSDOS were the same way (I don't know, but it sure makes sense), an 8 bit transfer should work just fine. Frank Prindle Prindle@NADC.arpa
