Re: Word, Wordpad

[Judith Davidsen jdavidsen@xxxxxxxx]

Tim--

There was only one file, for wordpad but with a somewhat
different line to be edited than the one in fax.pgm. Pad.pgm
inserted

start/w "c:

between /c and \program files\, and left the quote marks off
program files.

Before editing the line, I figured I would take the new file
out for a spin, wrote run pad.pgm on the cml, hit enter and
watched as I not only did not arrive at wordpad, but the Xy4
status line read out "Done. RTF temp file deleted."

Did I do something wrong or is there a glitch here or do I
have the wrong file or...?

Can I take the original fax.pgm file and replace the wordpad
path with a winword path to get it to open in word?

thanks for your help
