If when you are on the PC and viewing files, say in My Documents, you go to
the menu bar and choose View and then Details, you will get an alphabetical
listing of all files in that view by file name and file type and also
showing the file size.

Hi all,

That is why it is so important for people to understand file
extensions!  Microsoft doesn't let you see your file extensions unless
you actively tell it to do so.  Cudos to Polsedata for treating its
consumers with the respect they deserve by placing the file extensions
on files so that one knows what's what!  There is nothing so
frustrating as being in My Computer in Windows and having three files,
all with the same name, but you don't know which file is which because
Bill Gates has decided to treat his users like children!

In the case of Lisa's problem, the file extension was critical.  It
told the BN what l'deuce to do with the file!  My advice to you, Lisa,
is to read about file types and translation options in the manual.
Learn those file extensions and keep them in the front of your
memory.  They will help you not only with the BrailleNote, but with
any other computer you deal with.

Ann P.
