Then you need to know what sort of encoding is used. Its usually mime (also known as Base 64) but the garbage at the start will tell you that. Also you may need to join the parts together to make one file, use a word processor for that. becareful if you do the above, deleting parts can be dengerous and corrupt files :( ATb. __ Phil H -------- email: phil4@phil4.demon.co.uk PGP 2.6.3i Key Availabe On Request. ******************************************************************** * SKYDUEL :- V V RRRR CCCC * * 92% and 2nd best PD game of 1995 (STF) V V R R C * * email: vrc@phil4.demon.co.uk VV RRRR C * * ftp: ftp.demon.co.uk \pub\atari\games\ V R R CCCC * ********************************************************************
