Has anyone had any experiences with using "Easy Worship" files in MemberConnect. It is files with the EWS file extension.

Our Contemporary Worship team uses Easy Worship to plan their services, and when they try to save and open EWS schedule files inside MC it is very quirky.

Any help appreciated.

Thank you.

Are you saving these Easy Worship files to the documents area of the MemberConnect site? If so, when users click the files to access them, their browser may try to open the files. In this case, if they do not have a program on their computer that can read the Easy Worship files, the file may open in another program and display as "junk" data.

The best solution to avoid this would be to right-click on the file in the documents area, then choose save as (or save target as, depending on the web browser being used). This action would force the file to be saved on the computer, instead of the PC attempting to open the file immediately.
