Thanks Dan, that would be nice if you could email that dsk to me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). I think I have found a ILBM converter program on a Fred disk, I haven't tried it yet. It looks complicated. Thanks everyone for all the help... Frans Doore, Dan wrote: Thanks, I'll download all the issues

Current bid is about 100 UKP. Delivery only in the UK, it seems. That is a rip-off!
