Hi,

The problem with remotely accessing the function browser continues; however, I have  
figured out the problem with the transfer from the Mac to the NeXT. The problem was  
that I was replacing an existing Mma notebook on my NeXT so that the notebook.mb  
didn't correspond to the notebook.ma file. If I drag the *.mb file into the trash,  
the *.ma file opens and displays properly.

I presume that going the other way (NeXT -> Mac) isn't a problem since on the Mac  
the *.mb file is coupled into the resource fork and when I replace the notebook,  
the "*.mb" portion gets wiped along with the old version of the notebook.

Mark.
