I can see two areas where your problems might be occurring: 1) When you
combine the multipart downloads, make sure that there are no breaks in the
file, i.e. that all the lines remain the same length and there are no blank
lines.  The only line that may be shorter than normal is the very last one.
2) Choose *DOWNLOAD*--> Application.  I don't know if that was a typo, but
you need to choose the download-->Application option to convert from BinHex
to normal.  You shouldn't have to use Fedit to change file types- I think this
is related to the problems above.
