Attacment default program

[Clifton]

Hi

How do I change the default program that outlook uses to open an attachment?

It keeps on using the stupid photo viewer for faxes I reveive on my mail
account!

Please help me! I use Vista!

Regards

As far as I'm aware outlook uses the Vista file associations you have set
for the particular file type
ie my faxes are received as pdf files which are opened with Adobe Reader

Save the file to My documents folder and right click on it - choose Open
with... and select the app you'd rather use. Add a check to always use this
app.
