Thanks so much for responding.  I guess I did not make clear my question. ,
cause say, with FF as the default , I hit the link in my spreadsheet to go
to the bank, which has to use IE, and FF is the default it will just use FF.
Maybe someone could come up with a script, oops, app, to ask, when a link in
a document or spreadsheet or somewhere other than in a browser, is
activated, to ask "which browser do you want to use" with a list of
installed browsers to choose from.

Both IE and Firefox can be set up to check if they are the default browser.
In IE 8, press Alt-T and arrow to Internet Options. Then press Right Arrow
to till you find the Programs tab. You should be able to tab to the
checkbox. In Firefox 3.6, press Alt-T and then Up Arrow to Internet Options.
The checkbox should be under the General tab. Thus, if you start the browser
that is not your default, you will be presented with the option to make it
your default. Hope this helps.

Subject: Specifying which browser to use

 

Hi,

 

Is it possible to specify which browser to use?  I have multiple documents
for different tasks with links embedded in them  sometimes I want to use FF,
my default browser.  Other times I need to use IE.
