Don't use Macs (or Windows for that matter) so don't know how they are setup with regard to extensions. All I know is that I'm prompted asking me if I want to save the file when I mark it for download. It's just a matter of saving the file then going back to the download location (I have Firefox set to save to the desktop) and renaming the file with an appropriate extension. Since the school is an MS Office user, I just rename it with a .doc (or whatever is appropriate). Don't know where the weird file name is coming from. HTH mcm Thanks it did not do that until yesterday before I could open any word document with open office. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
