Re: Speaking of the (P)SAT..



Okay, thanks to everyone who answered my post.  I had kinda figured that
there wasn't much need for programs on the test.  Anyway, I tried to load
your 85 programs on to my ti85, but they wouldn't transfer.  They have the
85p extension(I know that doesn't mean anything to the calc) but won't even
open in my graphlink software.  I haven't had any problem sending programs
before.
