Correction to .idx file problem

J

Sorry, but I accidentally changed the 'open with' on all
files with .idx extension to open with 'adober reader
6.0', not 'acrobat reader 6.0'. In either case, I don't
think I should have done that and I just want to take
the 'open with' off of the .idx files.

I don't even know what the files are for! Please help.
Talk about a beginner - that's me!
Thanks, j. schools

..idx are typically index files used by databases. They are normally accessed
through the database application and not directly. To remove the
association:
1. Open Windows Explorer
2. Goto 'Tools" => "Folder options" and navigate to the 'File Types' tab.
3. Select the extension that you want to dis-associate (i.e. idx) and click
the 'Delete' button.
