/* NC200 Disc access */
If you wish to transfer files to disc, you need to press Green to go to the list of documents. Press space and highlight each document you want to copy, press menu and then select "Copy marked files to disk"). The files will be read from RAM and written to disk.
 
== BASIC program transfer ==
 
To transfer a BASIC program *to* the NC computer you will need it to be stored as ASCII and not in it's native tokenized binary form.
You can save a BASIC program to RAM in it's tokenized form, but it will not display in either the wordprocessor OR the spreadsheet document list.
Therefore you can't copy it on/off the NC this way.
 
For NC200 you can use the floppy drive and use the file manager to copy files from the disc into ram.
For all NC computers you can use the memory card OR serial interface to transfer files.
 
To transfer a BASIC program *from* the NC computer will need to convert it to ASCII.
Do this with
 
*SPOOL <filename>
LIST
*SPOOL
 
The ASCII version of the file will now be in the NC computers ram.
 
For NC200, you now need to list all wordprocessor documents and then you can copy the ascii file to disc.
For all NC computers you can also use the serial interface.
