Please send email to ammon@neon.stanford.edu to respond as I do not
normally read this newsgroup.  Thanks. 

Suppose somebody gives me a disk from his ibm-pc clone running dos.
The disk contains files he has created with word perfect on his ibm.

I would like to edit these files with Microsoft Word 4.0 on my mac.

How can I translate these files to mac/word4.0?
Will the Apple File Exchange help?
Do I start up AFE and then insert the ibm disk?

Thanks again...
