Mac OS and DOS systems store and maintain files differently. Follow
these basic rules to avoid problems:
* Create folders for Windows users and tell them to store
their files in them. Windows uses can damage Macintosh files (especially
applications) by opening or moving them. Keeping the two types of files in
separate folders minimizes accidental damage.
* If Macintosh and Windows users need to share files, tell
them to copy those files to their own computer, modify them if necessary,
and save them on the Web & File Server under another name. They should not
change the original file. Although many files can be opened by application s
other than those that were used to create them, using a different
application to make changes can permanently damage a file.
Does AS6.x fix the limitations on opening, moving, and saving cross-platform
documents from the WIN side?
