Hi,

I added COCO40A.zip to my web page:

http://home.mindspring.com/~sfischer1/

On this disk is:

"DU21*DS.BIN"

Disk Utility 2.1A Configured for double sided floppy drives.

If you have the time, try using it to format a DECB disk and copy files to 
the newly formatted disk.

It does not use DECB's DSKINI so your PC may be able to read CoCo formatted 
disks.

Once I started using this program DECB's DSKINI was not used anymore as it 
is so easy to format and copy files and do much more with Disk Utility 2.1A.

"DU21*D2.BIN" is the same program configured for single sided drives and can 
be used with three drives.

SHF
