[pchelpers] Re: How do I email a .dll or .exe file?

The first email address Ed sent me would not except either,
or both,  the .dll and .exe file.  I then sent the email to his
dot.yahoo email address a couple of hours ago. So far,
it has not bounced.  Ed had advised me that he would be out
of pocket for a while. The files may be at Yahoo waiting for
him to download.

Thanks Scott, it was a good learning process with your comments.
I learned quite a bit, but I don't know if the file will help Ed or
not in getting his program installed.

[An aside. . . .Both in Microsoft Word, earlier today, and in
this email, correction of text, as an example, through the insertion
of one letter erases the one in front of it.  Hope this doesn't start
up again. I am going to insert a missing "g" in again and see what
happens. Okay, where you see the "g" in again, it was an underscore
with nothing atop. When I keyed a "g" atop the underscore, it erased
the underscore where it should have pushed it forward. Bull. .bull. . bull.]

Thanks again.
