I was able to download and save them to my hard drive. The files are saved in Open Office 1.1. When I tried to open them, a window popped up "ASCII Filter options". I just clicked enter and the document came up completely scrambled. Is there a way to retrieve these documents? These are old church records and I would really like to be able to save them onto a DVD or flash drive to preserve them. I would appreciate any help you can give me. Thank you Roberta Doebert
