i've purchased winzip online so i could open the pronto files and add buttons, etc to my library for use with the Nevo SL. i think i am doing things correctly by saving the files, then opening them in winzip and extracting them back to my documents folder. but when i open it, it opens with adobe reader and wont allow me to view anything as its "not a supprted file type".

any suggestions are greatly appreciated, Thanks - Christian.

Start up Pronto Edit. Then use the File / Open menu to browse to your PCF and open it.

Right-click the PCF file and choose open with. Choose WinZip from the list.

Since the file is opening in Adobe reader, maybe it's because you are naming the file with an extension of "pdf" instead of "pcf".

Thanks for the input guys... for some reason when i right click winzip isnt on the list. i was able to download "winrar" from the same place i did winzip, and that worked like a charm. it is REALLY exciting to have some new buttons and graphics to play with!!

thanks again gents - Christian
