Will try this, when I return from work. Bob, I wasn't "claiming" that I couldn't open the file; I could not open it, and did receive the "cannot open file" msg. (Maybe I'm just being sensitive here, but that does seem an unfortunate phrasing in your post...or maybe I'm mistaking your meaning, here, but I have no reason or desire to make untrue statements, life's too short for engaging in drama...) And yes, it's entirely possible that the issue is with my Kindle; my Kindle was recently replaced, but under Kindle's warranty, they don't have to give you a new Kindle as a replacement, they can give you a refurbished/repaired one.
I was able to read the file in my Kindle browser, using the HTML option, and will hopefully be able to do the same with the actual book download, (I hope), if I'm unable to resolve the issue I'm having w. the Mobi file. Will see when I get home tonight. Thank you for your assistance, and if the difficulty lies with my Kindle, then I will request a replacement Kindle............for my replacement!
Thank you too, Mima, will look into this when I get home, but it's no big deal, I can read the sample as I described, and won't be able to download the full version 'til payday, anyway:) Will update on the situation, as it resolves itself.
