I know you can hyperlink to an image, but is there a way to change the
software that opens the image.?

Thanks in advance

I think you would have to chenge that in Windows. The hyperlink will
use whatever you have set up to open that type of file in your Windows
setup. Example: MS word opens up .doc or paint shop pro opens
up .jpg. You can set it up by going to control panel/folder options/
file types. In there you can find the file type you are trying ot
open and select the program you want it to open with.

Hope this helps.

The images open in Microsoft fax and viewer on the computer, but when they
are opened via the hyperlink, they open in Internet explorer
