Android OS question--IMPORT ISSUE SOLVED | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I have had no problems importing my premium app file into 2 Samsung devices, an S6 smartphone and a Tab A 10.1 tablet. Just clocked on the name of the email attachment and it came right in. These were not files from the remote.

I just bought a Samsung 7" Tab A tablet as a more convenient size for the layout ($109.99 at BJ's, on sale). When I click on the attachment name, I get a message saying that there is no application to open this. Android does not have a list of possible destinations to select from; if there's a way to trigger such a question, please let me know. Does anyone out there who is familiar with Android know of a way to force Android to use the wifi app?

As an aside, if you open that file in Microsoft Word, you can see all the settings, including the Advanced Features System Settings password.

After playing with this issue a few days using my regular email provider and the standard Android email program, I tried exporting the file via my gmail account (which I never use) to me at my gmail account (which I never check). When I clicked on the attachment, it imported right into the app.

Please don't ask me why the different result confused

Good news ! and thanks for sharing your experience.

Being new to Android, I was really currious about your problem.

So far, I did not experienced anything wrong with Android.

What is weird is that I've been using the import-export feature on other Samsung devices with no problem.
