Why does my attachment not work.

Hi James,I want to ask why my attachment does not download in the "Deterministic Ito" thread in technical forum. When I attached the file, it worked fine and I could download a copy. But now it does not work any more. I cannot download it on any computer. I have given the thread on several linked in groups and now it is getting embarrassing for me to find that file cannot be downloaded.

Is the file definitely a .zip file? Also, try using a short name for the file without spaces in the name. The file in question is not on our server so it is not getting uploaded successfully.

I grabbed a copy of the PDF file, zipped it up and uploaded it to our server. It now works. If you tried to upload a PDF file it will not have worked as the site only accepts .zip files
