Tom,

You need to specify BINARY transfer mode and a host record width of 256
bytes or your patch will get corrupted. On Reflection for Windows you have
to click on the Setup button, then select the WRQ tab. There is an option
for host record size at the bottom of the window. There is also a checkbox
there that I like to enable that will always put the host record size option
on the file transfer dialog. That is much more convenient.

Doug.
