Most of it probably won't work anyway. You would have to make quite a few modifications to some programs and none to others. But if you want to know how to change filetypes - there is a great program out called FAZ. It will let you change any/all attributes of a file (that's why it's the File Attribute Zapper.) Just fool around with the program, read the dox, but I really couldnt' explain this off the top of my head. Are you using the convertor from the Prodos users disk? Well, that's NOT really the best program you can use. I have had nothing but problems with it. If you can, use Copy II Plus. It does a real nice job with the conversions, but it will not fix any compatibilty problems. >-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-<>-< The Dougger says...
