HELP!!! Suddenly I can't access my files.

The easiest way would be to right click on the file and select open with then select Word Pad...be sure always open with this program is checked. This should open the file in wordpad and in the future the file should open by double clicking with the left button.

Thanks, I tried that, but Wordpad is not listed as an option
I just see Microsoft Works, IE, Notepad, etc. But stupidly, there's no Wordpad listed!

Below the programs it should have choose program. Just click on that and find wordpad. It should be someplace like the following... C:\Program Files\Windows\Accessories\Wordpad.exe.

You could do a search on wordpad.exe first to find out where it is residing.

OMG - You're a genius! It worked!!! Thank you soooooooooo
much, Intrepid. I am speechless - I just don't know how to thank you - Can I send you some homemade deep dark decadent brownies??? (I'm serious).
You have literally saved me from who knows what fate? THANK YOU!!!(And again, I'm serious about the brownies - let me know)!

Re: OMG - You're a genius! It worked!!! Thank you sooooooooo
Just when I think "I wonder if this is the mer I know from another forum", I see I get the evidence.

Glad to see you were able to get the help you needed.

ehbeth, I cannot believe this, but I just mentioned you
to my husband seconds ago, in answer to his question on how I found this site. So good to hear from you. I should have known my brownie reference would reveal my identity to those in the know! Thank you again and again for turning me on to this site! Hope all's well with you!!!

Re: OMG - You're a genius! It worked!!! Thank you sooooooooo


Mmmm, I love brownies. I do hope the speech comes back real soon.

I am glad I was able to help. If it wasn't me, it would have been somebody else. Have a great evenng.

The speech is slowly returning! If you PM me, we can discuss
the brownie situation and figure out when and how to get them to you. And don't worry, I'm an excellent baker - ask ehbeth.
By the way, do you know if there are any restrictions in sending baked goods from the U.S. to Canada? After all, I could be a terrorist.

Uh oh - I just tried to PM you, and got the following message:
"You have not met the PM privilege requirements for sending out PMs. Access to PMs is given to users after a period of good standing during which they have been active members of the community. To contact the site staff submit a ticket at http://support.able2know.com"

See Announcements: PM Restrictions

Unless you are a prolific poster, you probably won't get PM privileges for some time. I don't think there is a magic number. Some say about 500 posts.

Probably no brownie restrictions unless they are laced with alchohol or something stronger.

Don't worry about the brownies, you have thanked me enough. Really. :-)

Okay, but if you change your mind, let me know. The only thing I'd really be concerned about is the shipping time. I've heard many a story about how bad the Canadian post is, and that sometimes it can take literally a month for a package to arrive from the U.S. So, instead of nice, moist, fudgy brownies, you could end up with chocolate rocks! The best way would be for me to send them to someone you know in the U.S., just over the border - that way you could pick them up.

Meanwhile, a million thanks for your help. I wish you all the best.
