Hi Richard, When at the "file name" prompt, press space with x until it says "all files" or something to that affect. Then, and only then, write your file name, complete with a .brf extension. I've done this several times, and messed it up a few times, and this is the only way I know of to make sure you get it exactly right.

Rewrite the file >>name in, and without spacing, put .brf. For instance, What Time is >>it.brf.
