My problem is that as text files of programs, they need to be exec'd. When I try to exec them, I gett a number of beeps following each ], but the program does not load. I brought back a number of files (updos.exe and dwndos.exe) that I need to be able to do the binary conversions, but am beat unless I want to retype them. Has anyone else encountered such problems, and are there any solutions aside from re-entering the full programs? uunet!attcan!utgpu!tmsoft!mcl!unibase!leigh Leigh Calnek Co-ordinator, Education Technology 3002 Harding St. E.
