Hi Ednic,
I am sure that the file contains good info, but I don't recognise the extension ".rar". Could you advise which program can read the file.

Thanks,
Bushwanderer

I can't open it either.

I found this on Google,

RAR is another file format most commonly used on DOS/Windows machines. RAR files take multiple files and pack them into one file, making it easier for people to distribute games, applications, screensavers, photo libraries, etc. Later, the RAR file recipient unpacks the file into its original contents. In this way it RAR files are much like ZIP files.

Hi Barryj,
Well spotted.

Now, if it was a .zip file, that would be easy.

WinRAR opens RAR files.

It's shareware but should allow you to open 1 file (I think).

Yeah, but it looks like trial version type of programs. I have had enough of those things as they leave residue on the hard drive when uninstalled.

I'll wait till the .zip version is used on this thread unless someone else has a better suggestion

Here you go Barry!!
