Thanks, John, this has bothered me.And you know, it is just a small thing. The Bean has a slider at the bottom to change the size of the text; so when it comes in larger, then i have to slide back and forth and I never quite hit the 100% easily. The text-edit gives you the percentages and you just click on the size you want. A small thing, but it makes a difference when you get these files with odd sizes and you usually have to bring them down to read easily.

Marta,

Do a "get info." on the file and in the list of items in that window about midway there is a section "Open With" and it will show Bean in there now. Click on the arrow and pick text edit, then click on the button below that says "change all". Hopefully that will do it.

In my iBook I for some unknown reason have the default for opening a file that somebody sent in my BEAN word processor. I want it to open in text- edit as in my other computers by default. I use Bean only when I want to use the quotation marks the German style. I have Bean set that way.

I have forgotten how to have a file open in text edit by default, instead of right click using "open with ...." I can't remember where those basic "defaults" are located.
