Val,
Having the Edit button puts you most of the way there. You need to get to
Folder Options> File Types (from Ctrl Panel in XP, I think)
Find HTML document in the list.
Select it.
Click Advanced.
Select Edit then Click Edit.
Browse to the program you want to use.
OK your way out.
You might have to go through the same procedure for HTM document.
Hope this helps,
Don

Val said:Don, your advice was very good and I now know how to add
a edit program to my Internet toolbar. I still have a
problem though inasmuch as it all seems to be gibberish.
On my old WIN98 computer, it showed the page as it was
and now it showes paragraphs which tell about content but
don't show it. Is there a setting which take care of the
formatting for me?
Thanks again, Val

DVarnau said:Sorry, I don't know what you're seeing or what you used to see. Are
you viewing source for CSS pages, which don't look like regular HTML.
Or were you previously using a WYSIWYG editor like FrontPage or
FPExpress?
I'm not (trust me) an HTML expert <G> but post back and maybe someone
else will jump in.
