On-line Banking Download Problem

[Richard Court]

Rob,

Thanks for the tips. I didn't see any .qif applications in my netscape preferences but I tried you second suggestion of right clicking the download link and it prepped the browser to accept the download. I hope that this works in the future. Thanks for helping out, I greatly appreciate it.

Regards,
Richard
