Question of the possibility of using Amiga and PC for word processing using TransWrite ?

[wingbat]

Hiya Guys,

  I have been lucky enough to be given an Amiga 600 and a coulour monitor to match Yippie! Smart Freebie.

We used to have a 500+ a few years ago but that was only ever used for gaming.

Now I have a question, I have Windows XP Pro on my home PC and have TrasnWrite wordprocessing for the Amiga. (Transwrite claims to be able to export documents to wordperfect format ). I have got that sussed no problem. Now what I want to know is wether there is any way of transferring this wordperfect document to my PC?

Or is it the scenario where I'll only be able to do this with a seriel cable?

What it is I'm trying to achive is basically a system where I can type my text downstairs and save it and print it out upstairs on my PC. I'm a student you see and I'm getting sick of running up and downstairs everytime I need to type something!

Any help at all will be much appreciated!

Thanks

Shel

Hiya YooDoo, Thanks for the swift reply. I don't know wether I have CrossDOS or not, I have workbench 2.04 with the extras and fonts disk but cant seem to find CrossDOS. I know I can probably download it from the internet as a lha file but then I'm not sure how to get it from the PC and onto the amiga :-?  ( I told you I was a bit rusty )

Many Thanks for taking your time to help out!

I've worked out how to format a disk in XP but when I follow the instructions given by Kronos

Goto the "storage"-drawer on your workbench, open "dosdrivers", and doubleclick "PC0". Might need a diskchange, but after that it should regognize the disk, with whatever name Win assigned to it.

You can now safely ignore the DF0:, and drop files into the other one.

If you want to have it activated on every boot, you must move "PC0" to the "dosdrivers"-drawer inside the "devs"-drawer on your workbench.

I can't find storage and dosdrivers on the workbench. I'm using workbench 2.04, is it still possible to read 720k floppies using this version?  :-? [color=0000FF]Just when I thought I had an idea what I was doing........[/color]
