Pat, I just checked and it was .arc files that I was changing file (extension) names on. After changing the file extension from .arc to .cor these pulled up just fine in Compufoil, although my version is a later one than yours so not sure if this would work. This also may not work with the .dat files but I could have sworn I had some .dat files that I did this with also.
