[Coco] [Color Computer] how to load a .bas file into emulator??

[Bill Pierce]

Mike,
Create a virtual floppy disk in VCC using "Cartidge" > "FD-502 Drive 0" and select where you want the disk, give it a name with the ".dsk" extension. Then a menu box will come for disk type. Select "JVC" and "35" track and make sure "Double Sided" is NOT checked. once the disk is created, you must format it in VCC with DSKINI0.
Now, dismount the disk and run the Wimgtool from the link below and open the disk you created. Once open, use the "image" tab and "Insert File". locate the bas file and insert it. Do this for all files needed.
Now close Wimgtool and remount the disk in VCC... type DIR

Hope that helps

Having recovered some .BAS files (with Robert Gault's generous help!), I'm 
trying to load and run them in a COCO emulator. I've got vcc 1.42 running on a 
Windows XP machine. I've got the .BAS files in a folder on the desktop. How do I 
get the emulated virtual COCO to see the files and load them?

thank you!
