Sounds like you are using a mac and looks like you need my famous
"Open sesame..." Plug-In, TADA... ;-)

Go to:

www.major-k.de/revstart.html

and scroll a little down the page...

Its free and works (will let you open ANY valid file of RR or MetaCard
Windows, *nix etc...

You can even omit the "text" keyword :-)

put "no tab 2" into line 2 of btn "your_tab"

is enough info for the engine ;-)
