Thread Name: Help wanted for using MIDITEXT
Subject: Help wanted for using MIDITEXT
I have a problem. The MIDITXT-Software isn't working at my computer. When I'd like to convert a file.txt into a file.mid it is corrupt and my midi-player or sequenzer cannot play this file.

I downloaded files.mid made with this program and I can convert it to files.txt - no problem, it's working. But when I try to convert it back to a midi-file it won't. When I use an editor (Notepad i. e.) for to look inside this corrupt midi-file it only shows me a header - but not more. Where is the rest?

This is the header I see:

MThd  …MTrk

I think, I downloaded the lastest version of the software yesterday twice. I'm running Windows NT Server but I get the same result with MS-DOS 6.22.

What can I do? I would be greatful for help, thanks!
