Desperately Seeking Help
SeeSaw:
I tried Calum's suggestion and have gotten into some of the files. Unfortunately, they are what I suspect they were.
Thank you very much. Now that I know what kind of files they are I can rename them and keep trying. Thank you SOOO much! I can't tell you how much this has helped! I'm one of those people that wish computers were never invented! You guys are great!

In other words, someone who Windows was truly meant for.

hold <shift> and right click the files. then select 'open with'.
Becuase windows cnnot tell what type of file it is, you will have to try opening it with a lot of different programs and see what result you get. If you used Linux for instance, you would just point and click them, and if a suitable program was installed to view those files with, it would just open using that automatically. Saves all this farting about that you will now have to do in windows.

Probably. I'm from the precomputer generation. I just think the good that they have brought to us does not outweight the damage they have done. Maybe, eventually, guys like you will change that balance. I hope so.
To All:
Thanks again.

what good? maybe you should get a mac... they really were meant for you. none of this frustration i promise you. In fact a mac would have automatically opened the files with the correct app with no typing or anything required on your behalf.
