tfabris carpal tunnel Registered: 20/12/1999 Posts: 31597 Loc: Seattle, WA	How does one turn this... into this? Mainly, I'm wondering what it is in the Classes tree that tells windows to do the stupd crappy version, and how to mangle it so Windows doesn't do that any more. I always want the latter method of editing the file associations. How do I force that? Attachments 270772-1.jpg (83 downloads) _________________________ Tony Fabris
