F/SHEET1
This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.
Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

45,Hopton Road Symonds Green Stevenage Herts SG1-2LE Dear Gus, A quick answer to your request for info on loading from the SHEET into VIEW. This is a literal copy of page 133 in the VIEWSHEET catalogue. LOADING SPREADSHEETS INTO VIEW. The screen command allows you to save PARTS of the current sheet to tape or disc in such a way that it can be loaded into the VIEW word processor. Ensure the sheet will fit into the format of the VIEW screen into which it is needed, and decide on a filename for it. You must then set it as a Printer window as the SCREEN command will only work with printer windows. Place the relevant disc into the disc drive. Type: *SPOOL filename <RETURN> Type: SCREEN <RETURN> The sheet,as then displayed on the screen,is loaded onto the file. When the prompt ( => ) returns the file is recorded. The new file can then be READ into a VIEW screen or document and then further edited if necessary. If in doubt the VIEW manuals will supply further information on the READ command. Quite a large number of VIEW and VIEWSHEET ROMs were sold cheeply without the instruction manuals, so perhaps there may be members out there who know where reprints of these may be obtained. Hoping this helps. Lots of luck Stan Hardy. THANKS STAN. THERE DOES SEEM TO BE A SHORTAGE OF MANUALS OF ALL KINDS BOTH BECAUSE OF ROMS AND EQUIPMENT BEING SOLD WITHOUT AND BECAUSE THEY HAVE BEEN LOST. THE LOCAL LIBRARIES HERE, UNIVERSITY, TECHNICAL COLLEGE AND THE HAMPSHIRE COUNTY HAVE ADMITTED THAT THEY THREW OUT THEIR STOCK OF 8 BIT MANUALS. THEY DON'T SEEM TO BE CAPABLE OF SEEING THE CONNECTION WITH DESTROYING BOOKS. OF COURSE LIBRARIES TEND TO BE RUN BY PEOPLE WITH ARTS DEGREES WHO DARE I SAY IT SOMETIMES SEE SCIENCE AS SOME SORT OF WITCH CRAFT. I HAVE SUGGESTED TO A NUMBER OF MEMBERS THAT IF THEY SEE ANY SAY IN A BOOT SALE GOING CHEAP THEN TO BUY THEM AND RESELL THROUGH EUG.
