Dave: SCP worked fine! Again thanks. Of course, once I got in, I was again in OpenInk on my BeBook, the same as with Putty, but with the convenience (as you pointed out earlier) of working with the Windows Explorer format rather than the Linux command line.

Now, however, arises for me the key question. Once within WinSCP, how do I access titles on my PC in order then to copy them to my BeBook?

MOE: I RESPONDED TO DAVE BEFORE RECEIVING YOUR ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS, WHICH DESCRIBED THE METHODOLOGY (AND CONFIRMED FOR ME) WHAT I HAD LABORIOUSLY WORKED OUT FOR MYSELF. MANY THANKS.
