Co., Inc., Everett, WA Lines: 23 <> I have a person wanting to send me a large amount of text that he has on a Commadore 8023 system. I've got a kaypro 4 which can read 30 or 40 different floppy formats but not Commadore's. I know nothing at all about Commadores and he knows nothing at all about modems and file transfers. I have a modem I can loan him so any of the following solutions would work: 1. Find a modem program for his machine and phone the data to me. He says that his BASIC is the same as the 64's but I don't know what is under the hood in the 8023 and haven't seen any modem programs go by for it. 2. Find a way to read his floppies. A kaypro dealer said it couldn't be done and a Commadore dealer said "whaddaya wanta do that for.." Any help or hints would be appreciated. Ben Tompkins John Fluke Mfg. Co., Inc.
