Hi Gary,
I've been using UUENCODING to move packets daily across Fido links, and have 
never had a problem. 
As this started out as a discussion on transmitting Macros in this echo, why 
not take the easy way out:  Call the macro into WP, save it as an ASCII txt 
file, and put that in here.  It's easy enough to write it to disk, retrieve 
in WP and save as a Macro again - easy enough with my WP 6.0 Dos, don't know 
if other versions works differently.
