Hi Don,
I've uploaded a sample file in yousendit.com and sending you the link
here.You can download it from the link.
This is the file
http://www.yousendit.com/download/Q01INnFGUnJlaFR2Wmc9PQ
Let me know whether you can open it ?
There are other big files like over 1GB. I think the structure is the same.
