I have a A3000 and use prowrite 3.1. Over the course of many years I have accumulated quite a large # of text files. Because of my work my den als also contains a Mac Centris 650 . Even though I prefer the A3000, my wife has taken over the Amiga and I'm left with the Mac and its error messages. Can anyone give me very specific instructions as to how one can transfer te text only files from Prowrite on the A3000 to Works 3.0 on the Mac?? Thanks
