You have to change the file associations, as described here: Right click on file icon Select Open With > Choose Program... Check "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" and choose the desired application. If that method is not available, follow the directions listed here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307859 -- Use OpenOffice.org <http://www.openoffice.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
