Importing Stars hands from hotmail

[benthj]

Sorry guys, I'm sure you have answered this before, but I simply couldn't find it when searching.

Had reinstalled Stars, so had not set up the saving of HH's so had to have them sent to my hotmail. I have tried both saving as txt directly from the website, and have copy/pasted to both wordpad and notepad and saving as txt without any succes. What do I do? Its cash hands, though I assume this doesnt matter?

If you are saving the hands to text files it should work. What errors does PT give when you try to import these files?

Yeah, I thought it should be a no-brainer to do this.
