It gets saved as somthing.diz.txt as Word Pad simplely tacks on >the .txt ending. Don't you love Windows '95. I find 3.11 better than >95 hands down. This problem has occured twice, so to keep it from happening again, here's what you do: Save as: "something.diz" ^ ^ this time you actually INCLUDE the double quotes! :) Then it will listen to what you want, instead of do what it thinks best. (Oh yeah, do same thing for mouse.zip. Save as "mouse.zip" WITH the double quotes....) _____________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
