Hi Yawei, and welcome to the forum! You may have to use Microsoft Office, O= pen Office, or Corel Word Perfect to convert these. But if you are using a = Windows 9X OS, you could try opening any folder and clicking at the top on = View/Folder Options/File types/ then find .pdf files, click on Edit, then i= n Actions select Open, Edit, Browse, and find Notepad.exe to open it with. = Then set the icon for that also and close out. If it does not work, be sure= to restore all original settings so Notepad does not get messed up. I got = my Notepad goofed up pretty bad once, and finally used a freeware program c= alled WAssociate to restore it.=20 cheers, Roland --- "Guo Yawei ywguo527-at-hotmail.com |24hoursupport/1.0-Allow|" <9kw4hqko= 4y0t@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: =20 Hi all guys, I always fail to import and check out *.pdf files when I use WinCVS.
