I tried making a copy of Telix on the XT and once I figured out the syntax all I had to do was keep feeding in the floppies. Next time I get the chance I'll do the same with Quickstart. Thanks again for your suggestion.

I just want this whole thing to be over with and everyone get their money back. All I'm out is the time involved in putting everything together, rechecking it and redoing the catalog. If I did have money invested in this deal, I would be out for blood. Still have not heard one word from him. I have followed the provisions of our contract and given him written notice that our agreement is ended and I have received the return receipt request form back showing that he did receive it. Then I will go back to doing what I've been doing all along. Terri ...

But Good news maybe for some Geos users...I have been told by someone that their Colorado tape drive/program can read and restore from a tape backed up on a Conner drive. He and another person are each sending me a tape so that we can verify this. If it works, anyone with a Colorado drive or a Conner tape drive can send me a DC2120 back up tape and I can back up the whole collection on it, unzipped. I also have a humungous clipart collection in PCX and CGM formats that I've been thinking of sending out also. I've got a terrific clipart catalog program that prints beautiful thumbnails (48 to a page) but it's already up to 86 pages and I'm maybe halfway finished.
