Ok folks, I think that I am making progress, thanks to all that responded. I
have discarded the serial connection thing which I now know will not work
with xp.

I used the interactive mode of  xfer and transmitted my files to a file. I
then used dejawin to move the files to the xp system. I now have my files on
the xp system in a file called (xfer.tmp). when trying to receive this file
through xfer receive, I get "can not open i/o channel. xfer.tmp permission
denied". I got excited for a moment but the light has gone out again.
