We have an IBM 5120 (an ancient beast), on which we currently use it for
sales order entry, invoicing, and other connected programs.

We have all our customer data files on a single disk (with a capacity of
approximately 700K), on which we have run out of room.  We plan on
purchasing an IBM computer with a hard drive in order to put our
files onto that.

My questions:
	How can I go about transfering the files from the 5120 (which has
8 inch floppies), over to the PC's hard drive.  

	All of our programs are written in some sort of interpreted basic.
(not microsoft).  How can I convert these over to microsoft?

Please submit any responses via mail.
