Ok. I told you I was new at this:

   The archiver is simtel20 at net  address 26.2.0.74 via FTP.

I accessed the archiver. issued the commands binary, quote "type l 8"
, get (what have you). and then I kermit the file  to my home system.

	I got the arce40c archiver from the arce40c. bas boot strap.
It  created the .com and .doc file ok. But when i tried to de-arch.
the file selectn.arc I got a error message that says it could not create.
I checked the error message doc.  and it said thta either the file ws corrupted
or my memory was to small. (I'm using a 64k base with 256K  Extended Memory).
So then i thought maybe it was the disk , So I transfered them to a speerate
disk.  Got the same thx#o\ Then I said maybe it was the Arched file so I got
another one ,Same thing. then I switched binary to ascii , got the same thing.
then I went to tenex and still got the same thing. SO either it's the arce40c
archiver or 756K total memeory is to small,( which I doubt).
	Help!!!!!!!
	If anyone uses the simtel20 archiver (net: 26.2.0.74) and has an
archiver that has worked. let me know) (If your local maybe we could just
connect our Pc. and bypass the vax translation (I have a procomm disk with a
nice prortcal selection.)
