Hmm, that's just too ironic. It used to be IE5 that worked OK and NS4.7 which would save files wrongly as text (and even worse, insert CRLF's!).Solution to IE .txt problem:
Ditch IE and use Netscape6.2.3 or laterIt all works very well, never had any problem with netscape assigning unnecessary extensions to files!

Thanks Jim and everyone!
The quotes worked great!
I did run into an issue after downloading the libs. When I tried to run my program from the IDE with the new libs. It gives me the following error message:
"Can't create the 'PureBasic.exe' file (already running?)"
Have any of you experienced this error message before?
Thanks for your help.

Looks like this is very weird stuff.
I´m using my method all the time and it works
100% for me. Nobody else can use it, so it looks
like i have a special version of Windows...
Anyway...
@Tron:
Do you have a registered PureBasic 3.20 ??
The library updates are only for latest version of PB
and the Demo isnt up-to-date every time (Fred? Demo is 3.00)
Make sure all PureBasic Windows are closed while updating.
@Fred:
What about a automatic update function in the Editor ??
"Check for latest update", Click!, "Successfully updated 3 Libraries"...
