Specifically, what happens is this: I strip the headers }off each part, down to and including the line with 3 hyphens on it. I then }append the files on the host machine (VAX/VMS) and upload them with Kermit & }Versaterm to the Mac. When I run BinHex 4.0 on them they get all the way }through the file, then I get a checksum error. Does anybody know what I'm }doing wrong? This only happens on multi-part files; I have no problems with }single-part files. } I think you also need to get rid of the extraneous characters at the end of each part; i.e. you need to check that where two parts join that there are no blank lines or lines with a few hyphens or lines that say "end of part 1" or the like. Also don't leave a blank line at the start of the next part. In other words when you are done appending it should be impossible to detect where the two parts met. LSB
