    Can't open bvp file on another machine: Why?

    I have a friend who also uses BV, so he said he would help me on a page.

    I copied two pages I am working on to my flash drive; copied good and I confirmed they were there by looking at the flash drive on another machine.

    Took the flash drive to my friends and he went to open the page but an error message "Unexpected file format" came up.

    We confirmed that my file is a .bvp format (using "properties" view) and was to be opened by BV; but it won't open.

    I don't get the "Unexpected file format" when it's a BV file and a .bvp format.

    Oh yes, took the flash drive back to my machine and it opened the page fine; we both have the same BV version.

    Thoughts?

      Same version; he got his at the same time as I did (my recommendation) and neither of us have changed/upgraded (as far as I know).

      Frustrating not being able to take my work to his place and work on it.

        Hi talosian,

        Try copying the C:\MyDocuments\BlueVoda files to your penndrive in it's entireity including your subdirectories and image & document files, everything.

        Then try again opening your webpages in your friends computer.
