Some characters are illegal on Windows platform while ok on Macs, e.g.,
"?". How can I copy files with this type of characters on a Mac CD directly
on a Windows machine?

I can copy them on a Mac and rename the file and copy over thru network,
but I'm looking for a way to do it on Windows. I have tried MacDrive 2K but
it cannot copy it.

I got message:

Cannot copy afilenamehere: The filename, directory name, or volume label
syntax is incorrect.

Thanks for the help,

Changhsu Liu
