the third choice from the bottom (above the Other Inquiries section) is a line that says: "Download Bid Lines File (MEM B757 Captains.)" If you rightclick this (for us Windows folk) you can download that .asc file to whatever directory your bidding program uses (C:/BidPacks in my case.)

For Mac...
Save the .asc file wherever you normally save files. Open BidX. Under the File drop down menu, select "Import" and select wherever you saved the .asc file. It will then show "parsing" the new file and open it up just like the good old days. He!!....even I can figure it out.

Forget about the PDF files.
Go to Monthly Bids menu in VIPS
Click My Bidpack
the third choice from the bottom (in the Other Inquiries section) is a line that says: "Download Bid Lines File" If you click this you can download that .asc file to wherever your browser downloads things...usually the "downloads" folder. Then import that file into BidX.

Thanks for the hand-holding PF. It worked--except it only downloaded the CA lines. ANd now that BidX seems to be fixed it's doing the same thing. Am I missing something yet again? .... Disregard. Upon further inspection, it was discovered that the profile had reset. Pilot error once again. Sigh.
