  Hey Bob and list. Which text format did you save the bks file in?
   I picked formatted text and didn't get the same stellar results you achieved 
from your conversion.

  Okay Sue--whose computer must be older than mine--here's a .txt version of 
the same file.

  Enjoy.

    Scott,
    I hate to tell you this, but I do not have Excel, and when I try to open 
this attachment, and also the one you sent later, my computer says I do not 
have a program to perform this action and instructs me to go to control panel, 
options, and create one!!!  Quite obviously, my computer does not know me or it 
wouldn't say that.  (smile)

      Volunteers,

      A round of applause for Denise! She has captured your nominations for
      Bookshare Volunteers' Most Enjoyable Books. Using the power of a polling
      place monitor she limited everyone to five books maximum and came up with
      this list below and attached as a spreadsheet.
