Hi,

I received an image in pdf format as an email attachment. I wanted to
edit it and so set a preference somewhere which meant it would be
opened in Microsoft Office Picture Manager. But now all PDFs are being
opened via Picture Manager. I have Adobe Reader version 7 but can find
no way to set a preference that all PDFs be opened in Adobe Reader. Can

anyone suggest how I can resolve this problem? 


Thanks 


Calum

Try this...

To change file associations

1. Right-click a file with the extension whose association you want to
change, and then click Open With.

2. In the Open With dialog box, click the program where you want the
file to open, or click Browse to locate the program that you want.
3. Select the Always use the selected program to open this kind of file
check box.
