I tried using Stuffit Expander on the files I put in from floppies, but apparently they are already expanded, when you try to open them, there are none to select in the Open window in the folder where I put them. Their icons are dogeared pages. All files were put on floppies in the PC using TransMac, which is supposed to take care of the necessary conversions to preserve all the resource forks etc. No problems getting those onto the Mac. I also tried using another program existing on the Mac, ChunkJoiner. I selected all 19 parts, dropped them onto the ChunkJoiner icon, and it mated them all into 1 file. When I double-clicked that file, it tries to open it, but I get an error -39, eofErr: End of file, according to www-2.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/user/lenzo/html/mac_errors.html. So I am still stuck! I managed to scrounge up another square mouse I had lying around. I must have really creamed the hockey-puck mouse.....opened it up, the switch click was busted, little switch pieces fell out, and after I shut down and put the brick mouse on, I had no cursor movement or keyboard response! What [EMAIL PROTECTED] Oh crap, something bad has happened to the ADB bus. I know never to unplug while running, so I figured this could be terminal to the motherboard. Not good. I replaced the keyboard with another badly grungy one from an SE I had lying around (am I a Mac nut yet?! yard sales are my worst downfall! ;) and thank goodness the cursor is once again alive, although I'm sure it has a very large bruise somewhere from the WWF slam I did to the now deceased mouse. Actually, I could fix it if I had another internal mouse board. The click switch was smashed. Maybe I should take it out back and give it a funeral......: ( .
