I had to print that answer out so I could study it a little closer.
"I mean, how do you know where the patches are that you want to keep in the new file you're loading?"
Okay, let me explain what I've done. I downloaded the patches onto a floppy disk as a zip file. I unzipped the disk and then copied all the unzipped files onto several floppys as MID files. I put those disks into the XP and hit DISK --> select a file, then LOAD. Then when it loads that file into internal memory, I play it. Like you said, it stores all the patches in that one file into the User banks. (I don't really care if it erased anything in User. I've hardly used it anyway.) The answer to your quote is that I'm taking each file, downloading it, then copying the name of each patch onto a sheet that I constructed and printed copies of on the computer. User 1 - 128. Disc __ FILE# __ <-- Like this. I know this seems extreme, and it is taking a long time...but to me it seems worth it (it is turning into a book though...). Look, I'll study this some and get back with you later and let you know how I'm doing with it. Thanks again for your help! I'm very grateful.
