I have files that need to be Binhexed before I can use them.  But first,
I want to make sure I converted them to the Mac format correctly and with-
out error.  I first ftp the files from UNIX to an IBM PC via TCP.  Now,
I must convert the MS DOS files to the Mac using Apple File Exchange.

What is the best conversion process when converting an MS DOS non-text
file to a Mac file that needs to be Binhexed?  I am just worried
that something will go wrong during the IBM -> Mac conversion process.
Any suggestions?  Thanks.

Jason
