    Uhm, the RomUlation downloads are compressed into .RAR file and you need to extract it using WinRAR or 7z to get the .GBA inside it, which is the format that can be read by emulators. :D

    Try that, I haven't used VBA for a while but I think that should work... :)

    www.rarlab.com/download.htm - this is where you need to download and install the winRAR. After you install it, right click on your RomU download and choose extract here. You'll got the .GBA file which you can open with the VBA. :)
