Re: DOS Program or Utility to read Apple II floppies



I don't think this is doable.  There are limitations in the PC drive hardware
which make it impossible to read Apple II disks.  (And the same is true in
reverse, for exactly the same reasons).

I suggest the following.

	Transfer the Apple II data to a 3.5" disk.  This is easy on a
	IIGS if you use a utility such as Copy II Plus.

	Use Apple File Convert on a Macintosh to convert the Apple II
	files to MS-DOS format.  Caution: older versions of this utility
	cannot handle MS-DOS 3.5" disks, but the newer ones can.

Or: send your data through a modem from the Apple to the PC.
