Windows 98se Internet Options Question
OK I did that and now when I double click on an HTM or HTML file it always opens in Frontpage Express instead of my browser which would be fine if I wanted to edit every HTM or HTML file when I open it which I do not. Thanks for trying though. Left click once on an .html file, hold down the shift key and right click, select open with, click other and browse to FP Express .exe file.

Sorry but I guess I have to use it like it is. I am one of these people that know how to turn system on and start programs or do something as long as it only involves clicking on a choice or such.

Windows 98se Internet Options Question
It is not terribly difficult. First, go to settings, control panel,
add-remove programs and click on the Windows Setup tab. Double click on Accessories. If there is not a mark in the Windows Scripting Host, mark it, click OK, click apply, put in the W98 CD and follow the on screen prompts. If Windows Scripting Host is already marked, cancel your way out of the control panel. Next, download the Add New IE5 + Editor script from: http://www.billsway.com/vbspage/ It is in a .zip file so you will need a program like WinZip ( www.winzip.com for a shareware version if you need it) to uncompress the file. Once uncompressed, double click it and it will add an entry (Edit With) to your right click context menu. -- Regards Ron Badour, MS MVP for W98 Tips: http://home.satx.rr.com/badour Knowledge Base Info: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?pr=kbinfo "kraut" wrote in message ...
