He wantsted me to open and print out the file,I can't seem to open with Step 5, although I am unfamiliar with it as well. Can anyone offer suggestions?? Is this the right file I need?

It means *.FSS (505 SoftShop 32 bit files). I don't know if is possible to find that software...Anywya in case you found it, use PLC WorkShop for Simatic TI505 Best regards, Hristo MIhalev

Try to open the file with PLC workshop for S5 from Fastrak Softworks. You can download a demo version of the software from their website: http://www.fast-soft.com/page.php?20 if you're ok to send me the file, i'm willing to give it a try and see if i can read it.Send me a private message. Regards, Carlo

Without the key, you can view the program and print it outbut you can't save modifications or download to the PLC. Regards, billwest
