The Amiga comm program will not recongize a MacBinary header, so saves the MacBinary file image to disk as is. The file remains a MacBinary image once it reaches his Mac. The link from DOS to Mac obviously does not recongize MacBinary formatted files either. So, what Pete needs is a utility called BinHex 4.0, but not 5.0. What BinHex 4.0 does is convert Mac files from MacBinary format to their original format, and vice versa. Dave Newman =========== david_alan_newman@cup.portal.com CI$[76012,3707] MacNET: NEWMAND
