    Found how to get the files, boy are they hidden well.

    I found the button in winpoint to display them.

    Do you mean via Options/Extras ?

    Hello Alan!

    What files would those be?

    Are you talking about file requests or file echos?

    I found the button in winpoint to display them.

    What button is that?

    With all due respect, you've lost me :(

    August,

    No, I navigated myself to the files.


    Then I figured out that was where they were.

    There is a button in the mail window that takes me right there.

    Thanks,

    Alan

    Hello Alan!

    They are the ones downloaded automajically into USERS\ALAN\APPDATA\WINPOINT\FILEBASE.

    APDATA IS A HIDDEN DIRECTORY.


    Are you talking about file requests or file echos
    I found the button in winpoint to display them.

    FILE ECHOS.




    What button is that?

    The REQUEST button on the top of the main button in the main screen (first one)
    at the top.



    Hope this helps clear things up.

    Alan

    OK, that clarifies things very nicely but .....

    What button is that?

    The REQUEST button on the top of the main button in the main screen
    (first one) at the top.

    ..... that button takes you to the file request editor which has nothing
    to do with file echos.

    Hope this helps clear things up.

    It clears up which files(file echos) you're talking about but I'm puzzled about your use of the "Request" button in relation to file echos.

    Martin
