Hi everyone!  I have a major problem downloading anything to my 2500...
here are the details...

I want to try to download ARC so I can d/l other files... I am using
Handshake as my tcomm. program.  If I select Xmodem or Ymodem, the file
size I receive is larger than the real file size.  If I select Kermit
transfer the file size is the same...However no matter WHAT protocol I
use, when I attempt to run it from CLI or SHELL, I get the message
"File is not an object module"... 
How do I go about fixing this.... (this happens whether I d/l from 
our server, or from a local BBS)...

Thanks

Kiron
