Thread: Must be VERY confidential

  1. #1

    Talking Must be VERY confidential

    I opened my mailbox to find the latest issue of the registry newsletter. Inside, the CD containing the membership list.?
    Cindy informed me that it was done in "word pad" and we don't have word pad on our Windows Me programming. Thought some might find it funny to see a sample of what I get:

    ÐÏࡱáÐÏࡱáÐÏࡱáÐÏࡱáÐÏࡱáÐÏࡱá

    Anybody willing to send me a listing I can print out? Thanks..

    Thanks Neil...I was able to bring it up, but wasn't able to get all the info on a car on the same line as the owner's name & address. Consider me a computer illiterate...and I suppose we illiterates aren't deserving of the info? If we were allowed a vote, I'd vote for going back to the old hard copy. Oh well, info I'll live without... I DO appreciate your effort.
    Best, Paul

    Microsoft Works Spreadsheet does not seem to want to open the file. For those of us without Excel any other options short of buying Excel software?
