MS Word has nothing to do with anything. You can transfer Daisy books without it. I don't have MS Word on my computer. Since you can't download the Daisy file, at least, give the brf file a try. If it doesn't work, we'll have more knowledge so we can help you troubleshoot the problem.

I don't think that can be the problem as I do have MS Word on my computer and all other Book Share books are downloading, unpacking and transferring to the Book Port without incident.Maybe someone else who has a Book Share membership can try to load the book and see if you too get an error?I am trying to download the daisy version. The book is The Old Man and the Sea the link is: http://www.bookshare.org/web/SingleTitle.html?submittitleid=4105 Thank you.----- Original Message ----- From: "constantine (on laptop)" <tcwood12@xxxxxxx>To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, May 10, 2008 2:43 PM Subject: [bookport] Re: Error MessageHiHave you tried using the brf format? I don't use book share (I'm from Canada, grrr), so I can't help much further; although I have found that, if ms word isn't installed, doc files won't transfer. Its a good thing brf files do, though, as I have no means of getting my hands on a converter around here.Have a good day from Tyler C.

I have been trying to open The Old Man and the Sea http://www.bookshare.org/web/SingleTitle.html?submittitleid=4105 I keep getting the following error which shuts down the program with a C++ runtime error, when trying to load it onto my Book Port. invalid character was found in text content. At 3205:21 <p id="para_000769"> I have removed the book and redownloaded it, and re unpacked it, and have been getting the same results for over a year now to this one book. I have opened and read many other book share books. Any ideas? Is there something corrupted on the book share end of this file, or is it a problem with my Book Port? Oh, one more thing, it is the dasy version I have been downloading. Yes, I am using the Book port transfer program. The crash happens when in the transfer program I navigate to the book it makes a beep like the transfer is starting and then crashes.
