Hi, 

take a look at this situation :

- I have a PC at home with a modem in it.
- At work I also have a PC, with the same kind of modem.
- A copy of DATATALK 3.0 (Datatronics Technology Inc.) was delivered with
  both modems.
- I would like to down and upload files to several directories on the
  two pc's during one connection (in one action-file with autoanswering).
  For example : I want to make a connection, and download some files, then
                   shutdown the connection, and work with the copies.
                After editing the files I would like to send the files (or
                   some other files) back, to the same or to other directories.

Is this possible, with an action-file and without a second person having to
look after the connection at the host PC ?

How do I write such an action file, and if it isn't possible with the 
DATATALK software, which software supports this kind of action ?

Thanks in advance.

Dirk.
