Hi Mary,

Are you trying to open an OFFICE BINDER TEMPLATE?

Binders are not something that I expect to see supported since they are really 
just a fancy list of other documents.   The file extension for a BINDER 
happens to be .obt, the very extension that is causing you grief.

If this is the case, then I suggest trying to open the individual files that 
were referred to by the "binder".

If this is not the case - well - we'll keep on from here.
