Hi,

If the filename is mouse_ensembl_cdna then that's the filename you
should use at the

   Wildcard database filename [*.dat]:

prompt. From your email you were using "cdna" instead. As a wildcard
can be specified  then perhaps you intended typing "*cdna" which would
have picked up the filename mouse_ensembl_cdna
