Abstract
A system and method is provided by which byte stream data files in industry-standard format can be retrieved from a compact disk and then re-created to provide an original set of native format files suitable for use by a first computer system. Additionally, an integrated network of a first computer platform which utilizes native file formats working in conjunction with a second computer platform which uses byte stream file formats can be utilized so that the second computer platform may transfer the byte stream data files to a commonly shared storage means, such as a disk, after which the first computer platform can then utilize a first interface program and a second interface program in order to convert the byte stream files into copies of the original native file suitable for the first computer platform.
