Robert, "…So cross-DOS will take any Amiga program and turn it into DOS and vice-versa?…" NO, it will not convert executable programs into a DOS program and vice versa. What it does is allow you to read and write to MS-DOS formatted disks. This way you can transfer data between formats, move programs, for example, that you've downloaded on an MS-DOS machine's floppy drive to your Amiga and vice versa. But the program must be written for the Amiga (or MS-DOS) system specifically for it to work. Gee I wish it were possible to do what your thinking, but it just ain't so. Chris
