Rude- I think you need winzip to open mim. extension files. Try keyword winzip you should be able to find a site that lets you download it for free.

Try this page:

Sounds like WinZip would work!

Speeking of computer help...... does anyone know if there is a VuePrint type of software available for a Mac OS 9 or newer? Something that will let me view the format the Regatta video is in? Please? Help? http://www.lasvegashotboats.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/huh.gif

First, dump AOL as it is a sorry excuse for a ISP. Second, get another mail reader such as Outlook Express or the full blown Outlook. Or use a commercial Email software tool like Eudora instead. That will prevent this from occuring in the future. If you want to send me the file I will attempt to unZip it. PM me to let me know and I'll send you my email address.

Rude, if you want, send me the files and I'll run the gambit on them to see what I can find. Send them to: keith@ws6.com
