        Hi All,

I believe the problem is that typing a file name in the start/run line,
windows will search the current active folder on the desktop , the
windows folder itself and maybe the path.  The error message you are
getting has nothing to do with Netscape associations but with the htm
file not being found. If you were to type in the complete path in the
start/run menu......  "C:\folder1\folder2\somefile.htm" then Netscape
would Start just fine.
