Hi Laurie I have fond memories of Surf City too, the more so since seeing Colin's photos and videos that I have just received from Don.
I've been importing WP files into DP with 5.1 merge codes for as long as I can remember and without any problem - I still make extensive use of WP 5.1. I am using DP 2.6X, but I think it's very unlikely this would have changed with 2.6Y, and am curious that you would be having problems. Meanwhile, you can always save the WP 5.1 files in WP 4.2 format Robert -- Robert Pollard www.google.com/profiles/ecology2001 twitter.com/climatechange3 [email protected] 1.212.864.3156 2011/3/23 Don Friedman <[email protected]> > Hi Laurie.
