Sandi,
    Excellent!!!  Here's what you need to do to get these things ready for 
the next time you have your card making app running.  I will strongly 
suggest that you create a folder on your desktop (or somewhere else you can 
remember & get to easily) and then move all of these files into that folder 
so it's easy to keep everything together.  Once the card app is up & running 
again, you can go back into this folder and open each one to identify, 
rename and then relocate them.

Follow my previous directions, but when you come to the part where you use 
an app to look inside them, instead give each file a .GZ extension.  You can 
do this by right clicking on the file and choosing Rename from the menu. 
You can accomplish the same thing by clicking on the name once, waiting 
about a second and then clicking on it again.  The first click selects the 
file while the second click gets it ready for renaming.  Either way, you 
should first shorten the name (as suggested in my previous reply) and then 
add ".gz" at the end of it.  Newer versions of WinZip know how to handle 
these files.  When you're done renaming, click somewhere else to set it. 
Then, double click on the file and WinZip will open.  After getting rid of 
the nag screen, you'll be asked to supply an extension for the file inside. 
I was able to get it to decompress the file by using '.txt', but you might 
want to try the extension you think it should be (fgc, cgc or hcr).  Since 
the program is not properly installed right now, you won't be able to open 
them, but they will now be in a format that can be recognized by the app 
once it's reinstalled and working properly.

Any questions?

Peace,
GMan
