I see there are already answers on how to print from Appleworks to ASCII 
text, so I won't repeat them.

But my problem is this:

I have an Apple IIe with an I/O card (the same card my printer cable plugs 
into), a 25-pin Null Modem cable, and Comm.System on Chuck Orem's Apple II 
Modem Starter Disk.  I'm trying to import into Windows 95 using Hyperterm 
on my COM2 port.  Both ends support Xmodem with CRC, but no data gets 
across.  

Do I need a different cable, a different place to plug it in, or both?
