Hi Rhonda,
Well, I tried that too and it still saves it as an htm document even though I give it a .brf extension, the contents of the file are in html code. Quite useless. I am going to contact support on this one because something is definitely wrong.
Thanks for your help, though.
Richard

Richard, after you've logged in, make sure that you're on the section that says http. Press S chord at that point to save. Give it a folder and file name. When you're ready to write the file name, don't accept the file name it gives you. Rewrite the file name in, and without spacing, put .brf. For instance, What Time is it.brf. Hope this makes sense.

>>Richard, when you save it, you need to put the .brf extension at the end of the book title.
