Yes, but Kimberly told me about the neat trick of holding down shift while
selecting File->Open.  If you do that, all the files in the directory are
displayed and all you have to do is to click on the DOS endnote file & it
will open correctly.  Also, when you exit, the creator etc. info. has
been set correctly, so you can just double-click next time (assuming that
somebody else hasn't opened the file on a PC in the meanwhile...)
