does anyone know how to change the default program for opening attachments?
Right now Vista is opening documents and spreadsheets in microsoft works. I
have downloaded microsoft word and excel and would rather have those set as
my default.

Right-click on any .doc file and choose Open With. Choose Word, and

Do the same thing with any .xls file and Excel.
