I'm using DW 8.0.2 on this computer (30-day trial of full version CD I
have). On my home computer I have DW MX 6.1. I am trying to edit existing
website files from a website that I didn't design. It has ".htm" files,
.."html" files, and ".asp" files.

At home (with DW MX 6.1), I can access the website files, download them, see
the html and edit the code, and upload them to the website. This works for
all file types (htm, html, asp).

On this computer (with DW 8.0.2), I can access the website files and
download them. But I can't see the html code for some of them in order to
edit the code. All I see when I open those files is jibberish symbols.
This is true for all 3 file types -- in other words, some of the html files
work, some of the asp files work, and some of the htm files work. By
"work", I mean I can see the code when I open them.

I just reinstalled DW 8.0.2 and HomeSite, and Extension something, and
ColdFusion hoping somehow that would fix things. What happened is that now
I can "see" some of the files whereas before I couldn't see any.

Any ideas what else I could try?

I'm using Windows XP Pro.
