Michael: Before doing anything, did you change the extension from .bin to .mrc?

Subject: Problematic file
Hi all,
I have a set of MARC records from OCLC; when I download the file, it is in .bin format;
I try to open the file in MARC-Edit, compile it into .mrc; however, when I try to open the file as a .mrc file in MARC-Edit, I get an error message "Please make certain this file is valid MARC".
I tried opening it on a different computer, same problem.
Is this likely happening because the file is corrupt? I can get the data to load as a .bin.
Thanks so much for your help,
Michael Cabus
