Bill,
** I should remember to cc the list ;) Sorry about that **
I remember that the gzip feature that zips the datafile wasn't working on
windows for a while. The devs might be able to answer that better. If the
windows version handles that properly then I couldn't imagine why this would
be a problem. If not, then you'll need to gunzip the datafile before opening
it in windows.
