I have, what sort of computer system are they using at your school?  A vax?
Over here, on the Vax, when we run kermit session on it, we have to tell it
to send the file, then in Telix when you press the PG-DN to download, just
select Kermit, and it should work.

If your school is not using a Vax system, it should be pretty much the same.
Get the host to send the file, then on your remote PC, select download with
kermit.  Should work.  Hope that helps.

Cheers
