#Excellence docs to IMB ?
4 messages in this thread
Help! I need to transfer some Excellence! (vers 2.0) documents to the-Ibm
driven program Word for Windows. Is there anything I can do besides a lot
of re-typing?

Mark,
What version of the OS are you using? CrossDOS comes with version 2.1 and
higher of the Amiga OS. If lower than 2.1 do you have CrossDos? If not you
should get this commercial program. It will let you write/read to 720K
formatted 3.5" floppy disks in the IBM format on your Amiga. I would save
the Excellence! files as ASCII text files and copy them to the MS-DOS
formatted disks. If you don't want to purchase CrossDOS I believe there
are a couple of shareware programs in the libraries that do the same
thing. I'm not sure if the files are in User or Tech but a SYSOP should be
able to answer that question.
These ASCII text files should be easily loaded into Word.

I'm still using the 1.3 OS. However, I should be able to get my
hands on a copy of CrossDos. Thanks for the help and advice!

Or look for multidos in the libraries here. It works like a champ.
