How do I?....

[Wooding]

HP P1100 with Win2K Prof. and I want to print to a disk file, and then print
the file on another m/c..
I click the Print to File check box in the Print Dialog box and end up with
..prn file, so far so good. I now drag the .prn file to my printer icon which
opens up CorelDraw (why?) with a box saying 'Import Postscript'. I click OK
and get an error window saying 'There was a problem reading the xxxx.prn
(xxx is the full path and name of the .prn file). I click OK and get another
error window saying 'No object to Print,Export, or Save'. I click OK (the
only choice), and CorelDraw closes with nothing printed.
So how do I print a .prn file please?

You have _associated_ the *.prn files with Coreldraw (probably when Coreldraw
was installed.) Try removing that association, and the file should print
properly.

Control Panel --> Folder Options --> Fil Types (tab) will allow you to
control the associations between programs and file types. Read the Help
first!

It seems that I can't remove an association, I can only change it to
something else. So what should it be please?
