                  DATA3            Converted RYBBS file
                  Convert.txt      Your reading it now

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
SETUP:

       Make a directory called Convert and unzip this file in it. 

 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
USING IT:
       
       To see how this works rename DATA-A to DATA and run Convert.exe,
       Enter 1 for EXEC-PC 

       Convert creates a file called DATA1 which is compatable with 
       PCBoard 14.5x file directories.  Use a file editor to look at
       the DATA and DATA1 files.
       Rename DATA to DATA-A
       Now rename DATA-B to DATA and run Convert.exe, Enter 2 for RYBBS
       Edit DATA1 to see what convert did.

  -----------------------------------------------------------------------
HOW I USE IT:

       When you (I) call EXEC-PC or a RYBBS and are going to download files,
       CAPTURE the file directory where the files are that you are going
       to download (look at DATA-A and DATA-B files for a example).
       Remember to close your capture file prior to downloading, all you 
       will end up with is more junk that has to be converted.
       Convert is set to handle 1000 lines.
 
       When I am capturing files I name them IBM for the IBM directory,
       WIN for the Windows directory, ect.
       When I am finished and logged off I merge all the captured files
       into one called DATA and then convert it to PCBoard file directory.

       All the files I download are copied into my upload directory which
       happens to be m:\dump.  My main conference private upload directory
       is m:\dump and the directory name is GDIR0.  I merge DATA into GDIR0
       and save it.  All that is left to do is run PCBFiler and move those
       new files to what ever conference I want.
