Sorry about that.
Looking forward to any input
(Thank you for just deleting the attachment and not the whole post! I appreciate that)
After looking into your suggestion, I went to
this website and checked out the tutorial.
Calibre can handle the file formats azw and azw3 and azw4 (I don't know what those are) however it doesn't have a listing for azw2 which I am thinking is kindle active content. I am giong to keep working on it and if i find anything out will report back.
Thanks for pointing me in this (or any) direction.
