IE gets its dropdown list from the file association list in Windows. If you are running Windows XP or Windows 2000 open my Computer and from the Tools menu select Folder Options, third tab is File Types, under "Registered File Types" scroll down until you get to htm or html and click the Advanced button. Add the programs you want to use to the list. In mine it says Edit with Dreamweaver MX 2004, Edit With Homesite, etc.
Then in IE Tools, Internet Options pick which of the programs you want to be the default. If it continues to open NoteTab then go back to the File Associations and check to see what program is shown for "Edit" and change the program association there to what you want it to be. Cheryl D.

I also have NoteTab Pro, and it was my default editor (for View|Source). Tonight I wanted to change that to either AceHTML or TopStyle. The first odd thing was that the drop-down in the HTML Editor combo didn't have a choice for (my preference) AceHTML at all. The second was that no matter what I selected from the three available choices, NoteTab Pro opened the page. I tried making the change only, making the change and then closing and re-opening IE, nothing seems to make a difference--NoteTab Pro is it. Has anybody ever seen behavior like this? How can I get the dialog to (a) include AceHTML as an option, and (b) accept my bloody choice when I make it?
