    Help with opening a file

    I need help opening a file from an email I got.

    Of course some IT geek put it in some funkadelic dang something or other.

    I was wondering if I could email the file to someone who can then open it and resend to me?

    Please with sugar on top

    Or maybe it's just a bad file and can't be opened, I dunno.

    What's the file extension? Send it to me and I'll get it open.

    Easier than it looks.

    It's just a DOC file. The extension got lost in a rename. I sent it back to you with the appropriate extension.

    IT people are sooooo sexy with all their extension talk. Bow chicka wow wow!!!

    Thank you very much Joe. I REALLY appreciate it. Opened just fine with your fancy renaming skills. Whatever junk I have on my system, would not let me open it. (course I don't have mad skills either)

    Thank you guys for offering to help.

    Re: Help with opening a file

    They weren't instructions you butt. Those will come next week. Jeez!!

    It was a work doc/file from a candidate, that I needed very quickly. I normally receive in Word, PDF or some other dicky-dak ext. I can normally open most files, but this one I couldn’t.

    Apparently it was a file rename issue, which I didn’t know. I was slammed on Friday with shit flying around here like edward scissor-hands, tons of ADHD, and no time, temper, or patience.

    I needed help and it was received gratefully, and in short order.

    Again, I greatly appreciate Sarge, Tyrel and Turbo for the help

    Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear.
    I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
    And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
