The most likely explanation is that the file is not for the phase that the game is looking for.

Just realised - I'm the friend you're talking about [:D]
Nice to see you in the forums Phil.

When you go to load a SAVED GAME file from the COMMIN box?

After you have the game RUNNING;
THEN you apply the turn files.

If this is a NEW game (ie the file is called "somegamename_
gamestart.pbm") then you need to select "New Game" on the first screen; then "Load email game" on the second
The program will only show VALID (by game, country & turn phase) file names in any of the file select boxes.
