Nope, didn't work. It recognized it as a teach text document, although it did open it in a window and displayed binary code/symbols. But it did nothing. .....................Mike T. ----- Original Message ----- From: Gamba To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2002 5:25 PM Subject: Re: Fw: Color Classic Software reinstall problem
Hi Mike, If it says "document" then the Mac isn't seeing the file for what it is.Sounds like something went wrong in the process of getting it from PC to Mac. Let's try a little experiment: Take the file that is enclosed with this email and transfer it to the Mac without doing any thing to it. After it's on the Mac delete the ".txt" suffix. Then double click on it. It should self expand into the Enabler that youu need (401 v1.0.5). I don't know for sure if this is going to work but I sure am curious to find out if it will.
