Hello Rhonda, Thanks so much for your quick response! I've tried all the resets, including the service reset as a last resort, but I'm afraid I still get the "reached the end of the file" message. I can't help thinking that there should be some way of brainwashing the PC into letting me copy the file and then open it. I must have really messed up that file big time!
I do appreciate your help, and please let me know if you have any other suggestions.
