Hi Don, I've uploaded a sample file in yousendit.com and sending you the link here.You can download it from the link. This is the file http://www.yousendit.com/download/Q01INnFGUnJlaFR2Wmc9PQ Let me know whether you can open it ? There are other big files like over 1GB. I think the structure is the same.
