Garey, thanks fer the reply.

As I mentioned, I was able to go to Aligent and download the entire HP 
8640B manual, using Adobe.
On Bama, the two files I have problems with, one stops very early, like 
page 16, the other makes it to page 116 (or somewhere) but no matter 
how hard I try, they both stop at the same point, respectively.

The files are: Tek 7-B53A and 7623A

thanks fer the help!!!

Ron -

Instead of trying to "open" a file on BAMA, right click on the file and
specify "Save to Disk" or whatever uSoft calls it.

THEN "open" the file from wherever you saved it. I don't know, but I
suspect it has to do with the computer not being able to handle a large
file along with the Adobe Reader, which is also a large file, at the
same time. In any event this way lets the computer do one thing at a 
time!

If that doesn't work, let me know what file and I'll see if I can
download it here ok.
