Bar,  It sounds like, for whatever reason, the files are not being sent
through BP Transfer.  It's okay to move them with explorer but only if
they've been run through the transfer software which does a lot of
processing to the files so you can move around in them properly.  I'm sure
Larry and Rob at APH will have something to say about this if you can hang
in there till Monday.  In the meantime, if the files are in the BP and if it
plays them, I doubt you'll  hurt anything by using it that way.  Lou
