I don't know if you were aware but the IrfanView shortcut (and just about any other .exe shortcut) on the Desktop can have (image files in this case) dragged to it and it will open.
Harold my friend, I think we've beaten the email formatting issue to death and I don't know how else I can possibly explain it. Maybe you should read over all of my posts on the subject in the archives. ;-) http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harold B" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> That's a hell of a good idea; why didn't I ever think of it. It's even better than "Open With" ... although (out of curiosity) I'd still like to know how it's done. It would be nice having both options. The reason I ask is that I like working with Lview (which has some advantages) but there are times that a file will *not* open with Lview and I have to use IrfanView (which has other advantages) to open it, then save it as jpg replacing the IrfanView with Lview ... thanks for the "Send To" idea. Back to an earlier point (an aside which belongs in Subject: "Formatting replies to the group"). Notice how the thread below (which was fine in the original posting, like the paragraph I'm typing right now), is now all right when this window is maximized ... but skewed when restored to a smaller window. That was my point, how to avoid that scattered look. I would like someone to say it can't be done and not keep me wondering ...

How does one add a program to the "Open With" window? ... <snip> Harold ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
