Comments on converting Apple IIc > disks to PC format in general would also be appreciated. I believe the following might work. It depends on a number of factors. My questions would be: Does D&S use binary or ASCII files? Does D&S use DOS3.3, PROdos, or special formatting? Do you have a 3.5" drive on the Apple II? Do you have access to a MAC? The procedure would be: Put the files in ASCII format on a 3.5" PROdos formatted disk. The MAC should be able to read PROdos disks into its OS format. The MAC OS has a utility for writting MSDOS disks. You might try your local Apple dealer to use their equipment for the short time it would take to perform this conversion. +=============================================================+ | Ben H.
