Yes that's a design error in TB. (sort of) Send yourself an attached .xls file and open it in TB. You get a dialog box asking you what to do with it and there you can choose "open it with oocalc". You also can check a box "Always perform this action with this kind of file" and from that moment on Bob is your uncle. No doubt the philosophy of the TB designers is that you shouldn't worry about attached .xls files as long as you don't get them. They have a point there. :-) Regards, -- Jos van Kan registered Linux user #152704 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
