Ron, According to the list of Adobe Reader Error Messages provided by Grants.gov last month...this error "in most cases...indicates the application package was opened at one point in time with an unsupported version of: Adobe Reader, Adobe Professional, Other software. You should download a new application package, open, complete the package manually and submit, using a supported version of Adobe Reader. You cannot use an existing corrupted package or data from the package to export and populate a new package because it will cause submission errors." If deadline time allows, you may want to keep trying a time or two more to see if this may just be a glitch or erroneous error message. Terri Terri M.

I was hoping I could tap into some knowledge out there on a string of errors we received from grants.gov on an application we submitted yesterday. I have been on hold with g.g for a while and not getting anywhere. From what I can tell, it looks like it does not like something in the detailed budgets, however, this is a modular submission so no detailed budgets were submitted. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
