HI, Lissi. When you're on the file name, instead of hitting enter, do an
alt-f to go into the file menu, then arrow down to the Open With
submenu...not the Open menu, but open with. From there, you can choose
another program to use for opening the file. If you choose Word, you should
be able to open the file and make changes, but as Jake said, I'm not sure if
it keeps page breaks. Maybe that's something you can check on. To change the
file name, all you have to do is choose Save As from the file menu, then
leave the name the same but tab over to the combo box with the different
file types and choose Rich Text Format. I hope this is making some sense and
helps. take care.

Dear Julie and Robin and Volunteers
extensions, extensions, extensions!
Julie, I'll try following your suggestion, though I'll be pecking and
guessing as I'm not sure how to transform files.
While exploring the difference between f1html and f1xml, the 2 files jaws
will read, I found that I can't make changes on either one. Delete and alt
delete don't work at all. I also discovered that when I open the html file,
I'm transported to a web site or the net or somewhere else than my files.
There's one extension I can't open. It is, f1ncx. Last May when I first
began downloading books, there were different extensions, I think. 2 of them
were much easier to open and read. Or, maybe, I'm just confusing myself!
Always With Love,
Lissi
