The consensus opinion on this topic is that the C64 uses a different
encoding scheme that cannot be read by a PC. Two alternatives have
been suggested: (1) use a modem connection and (2) use a C128, a 1571
drive, and a program called Big Blue Reader.
Thanks to everyone who took the time to help me with this question.

Two alternatives have I have a C= 64 with a 1581, 1571 disk drive. I have no problems converting from IBM to CBM or CBM to IBM format. Bob hau@mentor.cc.purdue.edu
