I don't even own Vista and I've already come to despise it! In XP if you go
to "Help and Support" one of the options on the tool bar was "Index" which
would show an alphebetical listing of key word as well as allowing the use to
type in the key word. I can't find this "Index" in Vista.

In addition in XP if you go into "Explorer" click on "Folder Options" and
then "File Types" you get a list of all the file extensions and what programs
they open. I can't find this feature at all in Vista.

Any help would be appreciated.

If you don't own vista why does it matter? continue to despise the unknown.

Ted

Open Control Panel/Default Programs and select the "Associate a file type
with a program" link.

There is no index for Help and Support, because it is dynamic. The keywords
and phrases are plain language, just type the information you are looking
for and you will get a list of results. The first links are the most
relevant, decending to the least relevant.

I am a computer technician and therefore I am called upon to repair other
people's computers. That's why I care!
