The issue with these particular kes files is not that they are corrupted but that their titles are too long. Once the titles are shortened, the files will load into kurzweil. Just use the Windows rename reature.
The files themselves have some date fixing up necessary. Specifically 1 is often written i 2 is often written z 0 is often written o There are extraneious line breaks in a couple of the series files. E. At 06:11 PM 12/12/2007, you wrote:
I've seen this problem on .kes files when they have been corrupted. Hopefully Kenneth will read this, and perhaps he still has copies of the book that could be uploaded.

I've just released two volumes of the Story of Civilization, parts ten and eight. They were both submitted in .kes format by Kenneth Cross. I can't open either file. Kurzweil tells me an error has occurred and the format can't be determined. Yet both of these books have been taken from Step 1 multiple times before by other volunteers. Can someone else on this list grab them and just see if you can open them? Would this have anything to do with running Version 10 and maybe the files were created in version 11 or something? Seems strange to me. I've tried using two different machines both with version 10. Neither machine can open the files.
