 SA> First off your using files.bbs? Why not have Allfix
 SA> import directly into TG itself? Did you check out my old
 SA> Allfix bible (ie TG faq on allfix?)?.

 DS> I started to read through it. Then I fixed the error with the file 
 DS> announcements. Not sure what I need to do to get Allfix to import the 
 DS> files into Telegard.

        I'll help you with that in the tg echo.  As to the
        FAQ...I wrote that so long ago its a funny
        memory to still think of.
        BTW check out faq.doc and fa2fb.ref it might gleam
        some light on things.

 DS> Can you give me a clue on what I need to do? I have been using the old
 DS> TG  utility Files2Telegard. Works fine even tho I need to convert the
 DS> file  bases back and forth.... LOL

        By now you should only convert if your using old utils
        or file listing programs for example that use the
        old *.fb method.  If not I'd convert completely to
        .fa.  Then you can not have to worry about files.bbs
        and all that.  We can move this to the TG echo.  I'll
        get some screen captures...
 
 SA> In the old days we'd have to convert FA2FB format for
 SA> some utils that used files.bbs but if you rusing the latest
 SA> version then shouldn't really have to.

 DS> I still do it that way. Until I figure out how to get Allfix to do all
 DS> of  it.... Guess I need to read your FAQ again to see it I can find
 DS> it... LOL 

        That huge FAQ covers the old method before *FA so it
        won't help though it WILL help in some areas as
        to importing like setting up the file bases in
        allfix and such.
