Guest Trace Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 For some reason, PAINT is the program that is trying to open all my WORD programs in my documents. Dont know how this has happened but message comes up that I can't open these files with Bitmap. Paint has obviously become my default file opener in my documents. Any idea how I can reverse this? I can press OPEN WITH word every time I click on a folder - but its a bit monotonous! Hope someone can help. Many thanks -- T
Guest Ron Badour Posted October 20, 2008 Posted October 20, 2008 Re: 'Paint' is trying to open Word files When you do the "open with," do not choose Word. Instead, choose "other program" and on the resulting screen, mark the "always use" box and then select Word. -- Regards Ron Badour MS MVP Windows Desktop Experience "Trace" <Trace@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:F2B74F7D-E45F-43BB-9A02-C8299FD3434E@microsoft.com... > For some reason, PAINT is the program that is trying to open all my WORD > programs in my documents. > Dont know how this has happened but message comes up that I can't open > these > files with Bitmap. > Paint has obviously become my default file opener in my documents.
