      Thanks Mark <<




While I am comfortable with a registry editor, since the file association process uses multiple keys, I have never been comfortable setting associations in the registry itself and always use a file association tool such as pockettweaks on the ppc and others on pcs

My comment on the registry was an offer to scan someone's wm6 registry and compare it to older registries to see if it might be possible to spot a conflict.

If anyone is game, take a moment to reconsider... any registry likely contains private information and all I can offer is the promise that it will be wiped after finding and looking at keys associated with pdf file associations since looking at specific keys will not likely yield positive results.
