Thanks Keith.   I was trying to see the file names so that I could choose the 
one I wanted as I didn't know the exact name of it.  I was trying to do it the 
Windows way, and I guess that doesn't work.  :)  I can't get the documents 
folder to open on the desktop so I just went to the home folder in finder and 
chose documents that way.  I then found the list and was able to find the file 
I wanted.  It opened just fine.  I just have to remember to use command o when 
I do it that way.  thanks again.
