Default Transferring files from Windows 98 pen computer to Windows XP tabl

Mine is a most bizarre request for information and I don't know where to post
it.

To give a brief summary of why and what I am looking for, I filed a
complaint with the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Alberta (the
governing medical board for doctors practicing in this province) against a
psychiatrist who minimized sibling sexual abuse as a "common occurrence"
without asking any pertinent questions about the abuse (i.e. How old was I .
.. . How old was my brother . . . Etc.). This minimization was the cause for
reinforcing all the negative feelings I had about myself (a common effect of
abuse, whereby the victim blames his/herself).

The College decision favored in the doctor. About a week after receiving
the College's decision, I received a copy of my file as recorded by this
psychiatrist, in which the College based their decision. Within minutes of
receiving this file, I noticed a discrepancy in the content of the file and
had alerted the College right away. When I reviewed it further, I found
multiple differences of what he wrote and what actually occurred. The whole
file had been rewritten from beginning to end, which led me to file another
complaint of fraud. In the course of this investigation, it became known
that the doctor did indeed rewrite my file, not once but twice and he gave
the following explanation:

He had a "pen" computer with Windows 95 and when he bought a new pen
computer with Windows 98, he had no trouble transferring files from one
computer to another. Then in 2002, he bought a "tablet" computer with
Windows XP. He is maintaining that the operating system of Windows 98 was
not compatible to Windows XP and therefore he ran into problems transferring
files forcing him to hand write all his file notes into the new computer.
When I had filed the standard of care complaint against him, he went to print
out the file to send to the College and found that it had a "computer
generated date" on each printout that didn't correspond to the actual date of
the session but rather it reflected the date on which he "rewrote" the file
into the new tablet computer. He felt that I would be upset if I saw this
computer generated date, so he rewrote it again, and sent the College a copy
of the handwritten file to their request for a copy of the "original" file.

The College was willing to believe him to the extent that they ruled in his
favor again.

I am appealing the College's decision and am looking for any holes that I
can possibly find in the doctor's above noted statement. I am hoping to find
that there were *no* issues with transferring files between these two
operating systems, casting doubt on his statement whereby the College is
forced to look seriously at my complaint of fraud. Where would I find any
information about transferring files from Windows 98 "pen" to Windows XP
"tablet" and if there were any compatibility difficulties between them?
