| Create an association in control panel Numerous threads on this and was very helpful to show how to find the default programs and was told to set defaults. Tried many times and still could not get my attatchment to open. Was told: "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action" Create an association in the set associations in the Control Panel. So far, I did all this correctly six times. Found another answer from "Shawn" and said to watch tutorial: [url]www.vistax64.com/tutorials/83196-default-programs-program-default-associations.html[/url]. This tutorial was EXCELLENT but I guess I am a moron because I still could not get it to work. Same message keeps coming up when I want to open attatchment. (Right click would not give suggestions to put it on Desktop) I found all programs, default programs, set your default programs etc, etc, Does anyone else want to try to help a person like me who is very new but I have done everything I was told. Tutorial was great!!! Dallasemmitt |

| Re: Create an association in control panel Shawn I do have the Adobe Reader and the document is showing DOC. When I have done the tutorial AGAIN, the pictures are great for someone like me and I do exactly like the pictures, so there must be a step missing or some other step needed for my machine or me. I really appreciate anymore suggestions that you have. Thanks for taking the time to help me.
