To all of the folks who responded to my (off-topic) post about my difficulty downloading a GEDCOM off the 'Net, I want to thank you one and all for all of your help. Most of all to Wayne League, who figured out the problem was my Windows file associations, and then guided me through fixing the problem. I am now downloading a GEDCOM from the 'Net using IE 5.5 AS as GEDCOM, and no longer a text file. Thanks again to you all for your help. HAPPY 225th BIRTHDAY, AMERICA!!! dAVID MSgt David E.
