This is what I get in the t.txt file. datacomp: file "KBKNBB~1.EMD" should have extension ".emd" datacomp: file "KBKNBW~1.EMD" should have extension ".emd" datacomp: file "KRKNBB~1.EMD" should have extension ".emd" datacomp: file "KRKNBW~1.EMD" should have extension ".emd" datacomp: file "KQKNBB~1.EMD" should have extension ".emd" datacomp: file "KQKNBW~1.EMD" should have extension ".emd" datacomp: file "KPKNBB~1.EMD" should have extension ".emd" datacomp: file "KPKNBW~1.EMD" should have extension ".emd" datacomp: file "KNKNBB~1.EMD" should have extension ".emd" etc. etc. Is it complaining that my ".EMD" will not work because of the Caps?
