Re: Open file and save in different format

Hi,
Nearly there!

This has changed the files from .err to .txt (great!!), but I no longer have the original .err files
(it has not copied, it has just renamed)

I want to save a copy of the originals to the C:\Loaded file and leave the new .txt files in C:\

Thanks
