Hi Joseph,

Thanks a lot. I was to view that file. It worked for me.
The rest of the files won't view though. Thanks for suggesting Prun GPS
tool. I just downloaded it and will look into it.

I have files of some areas where there are no OSM edits at all but I cannot
view those files either. I will keep you posted.

Best,
