Grin, I think I've found the program but it has an Arc extention and when I try to open it I get an I/O error on header.


The files aren't that important just very old college work from worcester days, I've not accessed these disks for 11 years so i think I won't expend much energy on trying to access them now. Boy do I wish I still had a Eureka though.
Cheers
Yusuf

If you can get a hold of PC-Alien, there's a chance.

Failing that, if it's just two or three disks, we can do it
here for free.  If it's more, I'll need some beer money.

Hi all, Am doing some sorting out before moving next week.
Does anyone know
if there is any way of accessing floppy disks that have
documents created on
the Eureka on a Windows XP machine?
Thanks for any help
Yusuf
