Save the file to your folder-sailwave will then open it.

Hi Jon,

Hi Bob,

Interesting - Which Version and OS are you using

I tried in XP and right clicking a .blw file and selecting open would open
it in Sailwave

I tried in then in Windows 7 64 bit and it opened Sailwave but did not load
the file

What it needs to fix it is a registry change

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\sailwave.exe\shell\open\command]
@="“C:\Program Files (x86)\Sailwave\sailwave.exe” open="%1""

You can either make this change to the registry the entry should be there
but may be the open= is missing
or simply
download this file
SW-associate.reg<https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/220425/SW-associate.reg>
and double click it and it will update the registry for you.

Let us know how you get on

When I e-mail a Sailwave file it fails to open when clicking on the
attachment in Thunderbird. Sailwave open, but with no series open. If I
detach the file and open it is fine. I have no idea if this a Thunderbird
or Sailwave issue.
