RE: How to view .log files in IE window

Hi,

Have you tried clicking on the "Change" button. I use Windows 2K, but I
beleive it's the same on Win XP, too. I have an "Advanced" button and a
"Change" button. I was able to change the program used to open log extension
files to IE Explorer using the "Change" button.

The change button associates the file used to "open" the file.

Cheers,
Frankie
