Problems with File Assoc. and Hyperlinks
I have my .png files set to open with Irfanview. However when these files
are opened from excel using a hyperlink the file association is not recognised. No problem with .tiff but would prefer to use .png Thanks |

What versions of Excel and Windows are you using? What are all the settings on Windows Explorer / View / File Types / PNG and the Edit dialog that you can reach from there?

Problems with File Assoc. and Hyperlinks
Using Excel 97 on Windows 98 Excel recognises my association for png
(PHOTOED) when using a hyperlink. Sorry I'm not picking up on the signifigance of photoed What versions of Excel and Windows are you using? Using Windows xp home Version 2002 sp1, Offiice 2000 with Excel updated to sp3, and IrfanView 3.8. What are all the settings on Windows Explorer / View / File Types / PNG and the Edit dialog that you can reach from there? "Open with IrfanView. You have customized files with extension "PNG". To restore these files to their default type(PNG Image), click Restore." Unfortunately I can not relate to this customization either, I guess the answer is to click Resore and see what happens? The file associations are set in windows not IrfanView. Thanks for your responce. |
