*I really do not care what format it is in as long as it does the job 
and when I am done with the file I save it back to the same format it 
was in ! !*

*As it is not my file and Thomas is a windoes user person NOT a computer 
literate person and would scream if he had to do any thinking about how 
to open it !
*

*I keep beating on his head to change over but he likes fighting with 
windoes and removing bots and malware plus doing the checking for 
virus's so the file has to be the same format to give it back to him to 
jack with it and screw it up as per normal . .
It is why I keep copies of the files all over the place like a thumb 
drive ( flash drive ) and on the hard drive in a folder called win-crap 
as I know Thomas will mess it up some where some place just as sure as 
the sun comes up !
