Hi Sheila,
If you can play the files, nothing is lost. I don't known what the problem is, 
but you should be able to save the files with difffferent names, and this may 
help. Give that a try.

Unfortunately, this did not fix the problem completely.  The files will now 
open in SR, but it takes 3 to 5 minutes to open a 90 minute file.  Once the 
file is opened, it seems to act like an SR file.  I can edit, add marks  and 
save with no problem.  I even tried just coping the content of the file and 
pasting it into a new document.  Still had the same problem.   Then when I try 
to send the book to BWP it just opens the BWP window, but the imported files 
never show up.  I let the import process go for over 10 minutes for a 10 sided 
book and it never did finish importing.  I tried to exit out of BWP, and I get 
a not responding window.   Hope someone has an answer for me, I really don’t 
want to tell the volunteers that we need to start that book over.  Thanks for 
your help.

No need to resave anything. The open type has nothing to do with saving files, 
and does not change when opening from different folders. Someone must have hit 
that box accidentally at some point.

Rob you are my guy!  My open dialog box was set to “all files”  It took longer 
than normal to open, but it appears to be working.  Have no idea why the type 
of file box was different for this book than the others.  I will re-save the 
files with a new name, just in case.

Just a bit of bragging, We produced 36 new Idaho titles and about 100 Idaho 
titles were transferred from reel, edited in SR and built into Talking Books on 
BWP.   I and my 50 volunteers love SR.  And I love the amazing support we get 
from APH and everyone on this list.

Hi Sheila,

Be sure "Studio Recorder files" is selected in the "Files of type" box.

Hi everyone,
I have a very odd problem.  We record talking books here in our Idaho studio.  
We are on a small (8 station) network.  We keep our .wav files to around 1.5 
hours.  I have a 10 file book that I was just getting ready to add marks and 
final edits and then send it on to Book Wizard Producer.  All files will not 
open in SR.  When I try to open a file, I get 5555.555 (or some variation of 5) 
in all the status bar fields (time, time of file, frequency, Ct, mks)  The .wav 
files will open and play in Windows media player.  Any ideas out there?  Thanks 
sooooo much.
