   Enough trolling. If you'd genuinely wanted help you'd have   
   answered the question, instead of pushing a work-around - regardless of me   
   indicating that I already had one.   
      
   > and more forthcoming about your "program".   
      
   Why ?   So that you could fix problems that do not exist and waste both our   
   time with that ?   
      
   Besides, I think I was quite clear in my explanation to why I didn't provide   
   (the name of) that program.  That you are refusing to accept that isn't my   
   problem, is it ?   
      
      
   John, I mentioned having problems with people who ignore my stated question   
   and than replace it with whatever they conjure up what my /real/ problem   
   must be - even if they have zero underbuilding for it (aka: are on a fishing   
   expedition).   
      
   You seem to be one of those people. :-(   
      
      
   By the way: for my current situation the solution using taskkill just before   
   opening wordpad works nicely.  I don't need to use a different editor, and I   
   don't need to do some kind of a cleanup of temporary files either.   
      
   Based of the taskkill method I wrote a small launcher thingamagochy* that I   
   could put in the registry.  And with it I've solved my "generic problem".   
      
   * for which I had the choice to use batch, script or executable.   
      
   Not a solution I've seen anyone here even /hint/ at ...   And definitily not   
   one for which knowledge of the source of the document was needed* (and I   
   regret having even mentioned it :-( )   
      
   * which, even though I mentioned two other possible sources, was still   
   demanded.   
      
   Regards,
