I'm having a problem getting kde 3.4 to maintain a specific file association. The application is M$ Word running under Crossover Office. The syntax for calling the M$ appsunder Crossover is something like "Crossover+app"
The default file association keeps getting reset to some gibberish so that kde can't find the app after double clicking on a *.doc icon. This does not happen with any other app on my system including other Crossover driven M$ apps; they have always been and remain properly associated. Even if I copy the association text from another Crossover app and modify it (e.g. replace "excel" with "word"), it gets reset after I reboot the machine (doesn't happen if I just restart X). I tried a workaround which only partially worked. I created a shell command in /usr/bin which calls the Crossover app. With this, kde can start word if I double click a *.doc icon, but it doesn't open the particular file; I am left with a blank document Any thoughts on fixing either half of the problem. (Please no flames on the use of M$ apps) TIA Paul ____________________________________________________ Want to buy your Pack or Services from Mandriva?
