TRANSFERRING MICROSOFT WORD FILES BETWEEN TANDY 600 COMPUTERS

The procedure outlined below allows Microsoft Word files to be
transferred between computers without getting any of the packed
binary command characters used by the word processor.

OVER PHONE LINES
1.  Select file to transfer.
2.  Select Print option.
3.  Give a file name, eg. test.txt
4.  Tab to Formatted option and select NO
5.  Select Telcom and dial up the host machine.
6.  Press Control Pause/Break and select Transfer.
7.  Enter file name and the <ENTER>.  The file is then transferred.

DIRECT CONNECT MODE
1.  Connect machines with an RS 232 cable and Null Modem Adapter.
2.  Select file to be transferred.
3.  Select Print option.
4.  Type in COM: <ENTER> and the file will be sent to the host machine.
