You have two choices that I know of:  Big Blue CP/M Reader, which will 
convert files between CBM-CP/M-IBM.  Also the public domain, X-LINK 2.1.
The only diference that I know of between the two is that Big Blue will
format disks, whereas the PD one must have the disks already formatted.

I've been using X-LINK2.1A for some time for IBM/CBM transfers, and
it works quite easily, being menu driven, and fast. The CP/M conversion
part should work equally as fast and easily.

Happy CP/Ming.
