Just a couple quick questions about Apple File Exchange:

1) It does work with MS-DOS disks without an extra translator, right?
2) It does read MS-DOS disks on the regular Mac II built-in drive?

The reason I'm asking is that I'm trying to read MS-DOS disks formatted
on a high-density 3.5" drive (but formatted with /N:9/T:80 or whatever
the switch is to format it 720K).  My theory is that AFE won't recognize
the disks, even though they're 720K, because they were formatted on a
high-density drive...

Am I doing something wrong, or has anyone else encountered this problem?
If you reply, please forward a copy in E-mail since lately I've had to
severely curtail my newsreading... (Classes and all that, you know. :)

Thanks.
