Hi Andreas,

When you say you can't network the computers, do you mean that one or
both are not on a network? Because the quickest and easiest way to
transfer files cross platform is by email. If you can't do that, then
use zip disks (formatted for pc).

BTW, it's helpful for those of us who receive a lot of email if you
put a subject on your messages.

<excerpt><smaller>Hello!!

  

I have a question concerning reading MAC files on a Pc with WNT WS
4.0.

  

Is it possible to transfer data with ZIP disks from Power Mac G3 with
OS 7,5,5 and OS 8,5 directly to WNT? If not, what`s the best solution?
I`m using microsoft office on both computers, so I`m only interested in
files written i Word, Exel etc, not software. Unfortunately it`s
impossible to connect the computers together in a network.

  

Sincerly
