Please advise if any kind soul could explain in "non Teckie" language
how to fix this window message - this file does not have a program
associated with it for performing this action. create an associate in
the folder options control panel? It popped open when I tried to open
an attachment (ppg or something like it) to an email?


What is the file extension (the part after the dot).
