edata files and .txt corrupted

[David McFarlane]

My main workstation still uses EP2.0.8.22 (don't ask why).  When I  
double-click .edat2 files, they open just fine in E-DataAid.  When I  
double-click a .emrg2 file, E-DataAid opens to a blank page.  But if I  
just use File > Open to open the .emrg2 file from within E-DataAid, it  
opens just fine.  So give that a try.

As David Vinson said, you should submit this to PST Web Support.  I  
have also submitted this to PST, and they said that they would make  
sure that this gets looked at before the final release.
