The utility is part of the Mac OS (including of course OS 8). OS 8 includes
a control panel called "PC Exchange," and it should be installed on your
machine.
I can't imagine why you might not have it-it's installed by default. If
you're sure you don't, you may need to reinstall the system software. (If
you know someone else with a Mac, you could just copy this control panel.)

Subject: Mac utility to read PC diskettes?
We've changed computer guys and I've gotten a new Mac with OS 8 -- but a
utility I had for reading PC diskettes on my old machine got lost in the
shuffle. Does anyone know the name for this utility so I can order it?
Thanks, Elsa
