Is       this program only going to be used on your own computers exclusively? I ask       because if your program is to be used by others, I would not want to be one       of those users. If I have already set up an association for Rich Text Files       to be read in my favorite Rich Text File editor/viewer, why do you think I       would want your program to automatically change that to WordPad for me? I       know I wouldn't want it to.              Rick              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
