Perhaps something in a downloaded attachment created in a different operating system from Windows, namely, Apple Macintosh. That is the one thing that stays constant--in everything I've tried. Ah! Bright idea. <hehe> I shall delete those 6 attachments that came from the Macintosh machine.

I'll report back what I find. 1) Whether I can find the path to the %TEMP%\bat\ folder. And 2) whether a simple deletion of the attachments in the 6 messages from the Macintosh machine repairs the break in the other attachments. -- Best regards, Mary The Bat! 2.11.02 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
