The Word doc file applform_full_revised.doc is corrupt
- you will need to create a new one or find an older version that works
| Hi again, Thanks for all your help! I downloaded the addins from
|
www.jimcoaddins.com (I think). And I also figured out the problem with the
| application form page. I checked the folder the page was in, because you said
| that there is no folder named fp_html. So, I just changed the properties and
| it seemed to work.
| But of course, now something else happened on the website. The application
| form which I could open (word document) from the beexhib.html page before, I
| am not able to open it anymore. The message says "Do you want to save this
| file? The file you are downloading cannot be opened by the default program.
| It is either corrupted or it has an incorrect file type...". What is that
| supposed to mean now? Why did this happened while I did not do anything with
| this file? It drives me crazy...
| Thanks very much for your answers!
