Harry,

Notepad is a program not a file.  If you are speaking about a file,
windows associates certain file extensions to open with certain files.
For example, .txt programs open with Notepad when selected in a list view
in windows Explorer.

Subject: opening a program in notepad, did I do it right?


Hi folks,
Harry back with another question.
I use a program and I wanted to open it with notepad.  Here's what I did.
I went to the program I wanted to open, then pressed shiftf10 then down
arrowed to open with, then I pressed enter and then arrowed down to
notepad, then tabbed down to ok and pressed enter.  The question I have
is will the program always open with notepad?  Did I do it right?
Let me know, ok?
take care,
Harry
