Hello Evelyn and all, I am wondering how to transfer files as well. I have a bn18 and it's 401 software. You can connect the two, but you also need a program to transfer the files. I used to be able to transfer files to the blt18 via serial port and my communications program. How can I do this now with a windows bn18 and a dos computer? I don't have the windows machine setup yet. thanks. Isaac
