ANSWER: Setting Word as Default to open reports, etc.

[Cheryl Skiles <cheryl_skiles@FHSD.K12.MO.US>]

        At the end of this message you will find the answer to my question of how
to set Word as the default  (instead of Notepad) in Follett applications.
I received the answer from Kim Bergeron, a very helpful member of the
Follett-Talk group. I changed my settings first thing this morning and am
as happy as a clam at high tide :-).
        BTW, I included the subscription information for Follett-Talk at the end
of Kim's message.

ANSWER:

You change this in the Folder Options in Windows 98.  Open My Computer.
Choose View, Folder Options.  Click the Files Type tab.  In the open
window, scroll down and highlight Text Document.  Click the Edit button.
In the bottom window, highlight "open" and click Edit button.  Click the
Browse button and navigate to the Word.exe file. (The default location is
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\Winword.exe").  Click OK  until
all screens close.
