  Could you please formulate this as a question? What are you trying to get the system to do or not do? What steps have you taken so far to accomplish that?

The computer is asking you to choose what to do by pressing a key appropriate for what you're trying to do O,E,R,D,Q,A for the corresponding choice that fits your situation.

The issue here is that when you open your file with two different programs the computer essentially creates two separate working copies of the file in a (swap file)--and it needs to know what to do about the copies, and which one it will store as the permanent copy to the hard-disk when you're done.

The *.swap file is the temporary copy where the file lives. You're going to need to choose what to do based on what is appropriate in your situation.
