Thank you for your help. I think the downloading process works, but I am unable to find out because I don't know how to use the files I have downloaded. I'll explain again: I own an A500, AmigaTerm software, 1MB, 1 internal drive, no hard drive. Before downloading, I did as you said(8N1), initiated send, and waited 45 minutes for the program to load(1200 baud). The program is CHEMES.LZH, a molecular modeling program that sounds really useful by its description. I assigned it a filename of JTB1:/CHEMES.LZH using XMODEM and it was unable to create a file('XMODEM unable to create file' flag). Of course, the transmission failed. I was finally sucessful at downloading most of the file by reassigning the filename to simply CHEMES.LZH , but I was only able to use my AmigaTerm disk to download the file but the disk became full after 1033 blocks of info loaded! This is very frustrating. I would like some information on downloading to another disk, and using the program once I have it on disk. Thank you very much.
