ah-HA! The path was indeed correct in the .FM, .BOOK, and .MIF file types, but before clicking away in despair, I refreshed the data for each path by browsing to the Framemaker.exe file and RE-associating it with each of the file types. I do recall that when a PC Support guy came to install the app, that he had to install twice. That probably corrupted things. For any future problems, the error message was, when I double clicked on on an FM or BOOK file, "[Filename] is not a valid Win32 application." Which is confusing, because you get a similar error message (for different reasons) in other Adobe apps, mainly Photoshop. But it works fine now! Many thanks. - ron PS: hmm...need to reactivate my Framers subscription.
