The County of Kalamazoo has provided this page to assist visitors of this site with information about downloading various file types. If you have any questions regarding how to download files from our site, you will find most of your questions are answered in the next few paragraphs. If you don't find the answer you are looking for, feel free to contact our web master.

Files may take a few minutes to download depending on your connection speed to the Internet and other connectivity factors. If you have difficulty downloading files, you might try during non-peak Internet usage times such as early a.m. There are fewer users on line at that time which may assist in a faster download.

Files located here are in various formats. Generally speaking, you need the program that creates those file types in order to view the file you wish to download. If you are using a different version of the same program that created the file, the layout of the page may appear differently than it was designed. If you need a program to view or convert these file types, visit Microsoft's Download Center where you can download and install (for free) the programs you need to accomplish this.

Newer versions of Internet Explorer and Netscape browser software may automatically load the file into the current window if you have the needed program to view the file.

If you wish to save a report to your own computer for use at a later date instead of trying to view it now, place your mouse pointer over the link(s) and right click. A list of options should appear.

Internet Explorer users choose "Save target as" and then use the new dialogue box to choose where to save it.

Netscape users choose "Save link as" and a new dialogue box opens asking where you would like to save it.

Repeat this process to save any of the desired files by moving your mouse to subsequent links. In all cases, you will note the files are pre-named.
