cannot open publisher by double clicking
Hi,
Not sure if anyone has come across this issue before. But when a user logs on with their username and password to a pc and locates a .pub file, if they double click the file it then attempts to open the file with another program. Looking in Tools | Folder options | File Tyes, it doesnt say open with MS Pub in the opens with section for .pub files. But if i log on as the local administrato it does say opens with MS Pub for the .pub file and i am to open a .pub file by double clicking it. Any ideas Cheers M |

Assuming this is a work system, talk to your IT staff and get them to change
it. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "mahmad" wrote in message ... Hi, I am not able to change any settings logged on as the user. We are using pub 2000.

A file does not open in the program that you expect when you try to open the
file in Office http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918957/en-us Could be a permission problem. Download FileMon and RegMon from http://www.sysinternals.com/. Run them as administrator (when no user is connected), start a TS session as a normal user and try to run the application. FileMon and RegMon will show you all "access denied" errors that occur, so that you can give your users the necessary permissions on a file-to file or Registry subkey basis. -- Mary Sauer MSFT MVP http://office.microsoft.com/ http://msauer.mvps.org/ news://msnews.microsoft.com "mahmad" wrote in message ...
