Hey Gord,

If you've got windows scripting, you might try this little script. Place a shortcut called notepad.lnk on your desktop and this script will change the target pointer to wordpad ... worth a shot...

break on

$linkname = "%userprofile%\desktop\notepad.lnk"

$shell = createobject("wscript.shell")

$shortcut = $shell.createshortcut("$linkname")

if $shortcut.targetpath = "%windir%\system32\notepad.exe"
 $shortcut.targetpath = "%windir%\system32\write.exe"
 $shortcut.save
endif

$shortcut = nothing
$shell = nothing

exit 1


Hope this helps ...
