Load BASIC or BASICA at the DOS prompt without the invoking the filename 
that is to be "Unprotected".  In other words, enter the following:
   
        A>BASICA [ENTER]         ([ENTER] is used as the symbol for a carriage
                                  return, do not type in the actual letters,
                                  just enter a carriage return whenever you
                                  see it used.) 


     When you get the "Ok", Load the file to be unprotected by pressing the 
"F3" button and typing the full filename.   I.E.:

       Ok
       LOAD "TEST.BAS" [ENTER]   (Type in the name of your filename where
                                  you see TEST.BAS used.) 


     Now, while the program is loaded, LOAD "UNPROT.BAS" right behind it in the
same manner. I.E.:

       Ok
       LOAD "UNPROT.BAS" [ENTER]


     At this point the program has been "Unprotected" and can be LISTed, or
SAVEd in the usual manner.



     This short Unprotect file has worked on every DOS machine I have tried it
on.  Clones as well as true blue machines.  It is short, direct and to the 
point and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
