Hi

I know that this is an old chestnut, but having looked at the groups for hours I can’t sort it out.

I’m running XP pro SP2.

When I was running PS7, right click-open opened an image in PS and right-click preview opened it in fax viewer

When I upgraded to PSCS2 I managed to associate all actions with PS, so I can now only preview with fax viewer if I use the open with command

I have got as far as Control Panel/ Folder Options/ File Types (jpg) / Advanced/ Preview/ Edit but what application should I put in " Application to be used for this action" ? (picture & fax viewer dosn’t have a normal exe does it ?)

Or am I going about this the wrong way.

To summerise: I want to open/edit images in PS and preview images in picture & fax viewer

Thanks

Tobit
