Cliff,

Yes, I believe that was the problem.   AFAIK Apple refuses to allow simple plain text files.  TextEdit apparently corrupted the file even when I specified TXT.  I finally got a simple working file with OpenOffice and specifying a simple text file.

So far, it seems to be working.

Thanks,

Ken
