What exactly are you trying to do with WordStar?  So far as I know, never
having owned CP/M WordStar (I use an OLD MS-DOS version), the best way to 
put a file on another disk is to use ^K^B and ^K^K to mark the whole file
then ^K^W to write it to another file.  It works, but it's a bit clumsy.
If you need, I can send a sort of copy of my MS-DOS WScheatsheet.  WS 3.12
is functionally identical to and slower than CP/M WS of the same vintage,
since it is merely translated assembler. I got it in 1984.  What sorts of
docs do you have, and of course, what do you need?  I can probably give you
a hand.  Oh yeah, you can also copy the file from the editting no-file menu.
I almost forgot about that.
Hope this helps.

Marc
