We are networking our (one and only I'm afraid) Mac to our VAX via
Ethernet.  We have a whole bunch of IBM PC clones tied to the VAX also.
If I write a Word document on the Mac and send it up to the VAX, can the
clones copy it down and work with it in Word on their systems? If not,
what else needs to be done to the file to make it accessible?  What
other equipment or software will I need to make this possible?

If I can make this happen smoothly, it would sure make Macs look more
attractive around here.  Thanks.
