Hi Jim, I found a note from when I asked how to assign files to programs. The notes are below:
Hi All, How do you assign / associate file types to be opened with specific programs in Windows7? I went to Tools / Options & didn't find the File Types tab / page! Where is it?! LOL LOL Do you use the context menu exclusively to assign / associate file types with specific programs in Widows7? If the File Types Tab / Page exists, would someone please tell me where it is? All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much, take care. Mike From: Ann Byrne Type "file association" in the search window, and you'll be deposited there. Ann From: Joni Colver In Windows 7 I typed file extension into the search box. I arrowed down to make a file type always open in a specific program. I entered on that. I chose dot doc files. Word 2010 was the default. I chose WordPad. When I opened a doc file there was gibberish. I then went back and chose Jarte. Now when I enter on a doc file it opens and is readable in Jarte. Thanks for asking the question Mike because now it is easier to open my multitude of doc files! Rather than opening Jarte and using the open dialog I can just enter on a doc file and it opens in Jarte. Joni >From Rick Justice You can type, control, in the Run Dialogue box & press enter, this will take you to the Control panel, press the letter D, to find Default Programs. You should be able to assign / associate file types here as well. Rick Take care.

I have 11. But I have another question. I have a pdf file here, and when I open it to read it, jaws says nothing at all. I don't get the message about empty document or image file or anything. Jaws says nothing. I know the pdf file is a good one, because I sent it to my sighted wife and it reads on her computer just fine. So what does that mean? Before I had adobe on this computer I had Q reed on here, and it wouldn't read it either. Jim -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike B.
