WLM - Edit a stationery file - question
I write a New Message in Windows Live Mail and then add stationery. There is
an option to Create New or Edit. When I click on Edit, I get this message: "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel". I open the Default Programs control panel and look for the file that the stationery is made of (HTML document), which is already associated with Internet Explorer, which is installed. But nothing opens in Internet Explorer. Am I missing something? (Very likely) It isn't vital that I edit anything, I was just curious why there is that option when it doesn't do anything. I make stationery in Paint Shop Pro, then convert that via Create New into an HTML document before it can be used, but I can't edit using Paint Shop Pro after it is an HTML document. If anyone can throw some light on this, I would love to know. Grenou |

Notepad all the way up to Adobe (spit) Dreamweaver But as the files are on Mickey's servers that might not be easy. Trev |

This is a polite description. I am still making stationery on my laptop which has XP installed, everything works well there . Thanks Trev :-) Grenou |
