Paul,

Are you saying the only way to add software to the drive is a program like 
CopyII+.

So if I am typing a BASIC program I can't just save it to the drive ??
Forgive me as I have been out of Apple use for so long I have forgot so much 
and its taking time to recall the data from my dusty memory banks..

Bill
