Following your careful step-by step explanation it worked! I believe the
biggest problem here is that I was using Netscape and it never turned into
a text file that could be then renamed as *.lo Netscape acts differently
than MSIE...

Second problem is that if you left click with IE then you don't get a "save
as " message unless you use "FILE" at the top of the IE program. It does
not transfer the same way, & won't work, so that right click is very
important. If I have time, and now know what result I am trying for, I
will see if I can download from Netscape for those users. Many thanks, rondie
