One way to move the files from the Apple to the MS-DOS machine would
be to use a null modem connector, assuming both machines have serial
ports, and then use a terminal host program (Procomm) on the MS-DOS
machine and a terminal program on the Apple.  Then just upload the files
from the Apple to the MS-DOS.  Of course, it won't do any good to
transfer program files, they won't run any way on the MS-DOS machine.
But I am sure the ASCII files are worth moving over.  Also, you may
have to create ASCII files from your word processor & database files.


On the other hand, I think you can buy a card to put in the PC that
will run some Apple software.  It's available from Micro-solutions
I believe.  This would be rather expensive for a one time thing.

Hopes this helps.                               Bob Neal
