What's the name of the .rtf file inside beatie.zip? Does it have any
punctuation marks in it?
If there was a problem with the ISBN number, it would say so. Several
times, I have entered an ISBN number from a Spanish book and been told
that it's invalid, when it's exactly what was in the book. So I know that
you'd see something if that was the problem.

I'm still not having any luck!!! My file name is less than
eight characters...it is: beatie.zip
to be exact.
The only other field that might be a problem is my isbn number....I'm at a
loss. I even copied the file into my root directory so I wouldn't have a
long string to rrite out in the upload file field.
Cheers,
Robin
