SYMPTOMS
Some file extensions may not display in the List Files Of Type box. For example, the following line may read
RFT-DCA (*.)
instead of
RFT-DCA (.rft)
This is caused by spaces on the corresponding converter line in the [MS Text Converters] section of the WIN.INI file.
RESOLUTION
Remove the spaces from the corresponding converter line in the [MS Text Converters] section of the WIN.INI file using the following steps:
- In Program Manager, choose Run from the File menu.
- In the Command Line box, type WIN.INI and choose OK or press ENTER.
- Search for the [MS Text Converters] section.
Remove any spaces in the converter lines. The spaces that need to be removed are typically added between both the converter and the path, and between the path and the converter extension. For example
MSWord6=Microsoft Word 6.0,<space>C:\WINDOWS\MSAPPS\TEXTCONV\msword6.cnv,<space>doc
where <space> will simply appear as a gap between the two words.
- Save the WIN.INI file and restart Windows.
Additional query words: convert display
