In the Finder, click the file once. Select "Get Info" from the "File" menu. In the window that opens, click the "Open with" tab. In the popup menu, select "AppleWorks". If "AppleWorks" doesn't appear, select "Other..." from the same popup and navigate until you find the "AppleWorks" application. -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] finger-pointing syndrome n.: All-too-frequent result of bugs, esp. in new or experimental configurations.
