Subj : Default programme. To : Holger Granholm From : Jean Parrot Date : Tue Mar 08 2016 00:22:26 Hello, Holger. HG> This morning I have been fighting with T-bird. The swedish ham bulletin HG> arrives as an attached .pdf file, and I have been trying to open it HG> after it has "downloaded", only to be greeted by T-bird that it can't be HG> opened unless connected. I do not think that this ia a TB problem. You need to as per my title, set the default programme for any one file type. Find the Control Panel -> Default Program -> god down the list to .pdf -> upper right to change and follow the instructions. Kid's play ! HG> I am shaken, because the PMMail in OS/2 didn't behave like that. No help here at all, sorry. I do a little mail in Google, not much. I use TB for old time sake and to read you. It has been down, I mean not used much lately, the old stand-by are quiet. HG> I only took a break from it, to read the Fido mail, so here I am ! And I too. HG> To keep the machine protected, AVG or not, I avoid to have it connected HG> longer than necessary to send/rcv messages. The best protection, as Alan once mentioned, is the interface between the KB and the chair. I use here, Windows Defender, but mostly very careful web searches. Never had a virus nor a warning of any strange behaviour. Spring is about here, no frost predicted for the week, yeah ! --- Paul's Win98SE VirtualBox * Origin: Quinn's Post - Maryborough, Queensland, OZ (3:640/384) .
