I have a slight (very rapildy getting larger) problem. We have an 1108 running
XDE, but we'd like to run ViewPoint to take advantage of its foreign text 
display capabilities. We have a large amount (several hundred MB) of
foreign texts stored on our Apollo filesystem, which we would like to download
to the Xerox after ViewPoint is installed. However, from the ViewPoint manuals
I see no way to do this via the ethernet. We have a working version of TCP/IP
under XDE, but files imported via XDE cannot be read from ViewPoint (as far
as I know, but I'm no expert !) Basically, what I need to know is:

1) Is there TCP/IP support under ViewPoint ?? (current or planned) ??
2) If not, is there any way to transfer files from my Apollo to the Xerox
   running ViewPoint ??

Any help is greatly appreciated.

						Adam
