Bern:

What file are you trying to store? And where are you attempting to store it?

The "Peabody Simple" mission is described HERE:

http://techvideoreview.com/FlightSimMovies/AcesHigh/Ah2Missions/PeabodySimple/PeabodySimpleMissionPage01Full.htm

....that description includes videos showing the general principles involved in downloading, installing, and flying it.

The version for Aces High 2.28.x is described HERE:

http://techvideoreview.com/FlightSimMovies/AcesHigh/Ah2Missions/PeabodySimple/For228x/PeabodySimpleForAh228x.htm

....that description includes detailed instructions for downloading and installing the mission using Aces High Version 2.28.x. These instructions are more specific to your current situation than the general principles found in the first of the 2 links above. Where the instructions say "Copy this file into the "misres" folder of your AH V2.28.x installation", remember to RIGHT-CLICK on the displayed link to the "simple04.res" file. Your browser should then pop up a "file save" dialog box. Browse into the "missres" folder of your Aces High 2.28.x installation. Your browser should offer several options for saving different types of files. DO NOT SAVE IT AS A WEB PAGE or an "HTML" or "HTM" file. You want it to be saved as a ".res" file. Many browsers are not very clear on this point, but so long as you avoid "WEB PAGE" and "HTML" and "HTM" file options, you will probably be good to go (so long as you know where your Aces High 2.28.x installation is actually located within your filesystem).

I hope this helps
