I am hoping someone can help me. When I open a .jpg attachment my outlook
uses ADOBE photoshop to open the attachment. How can I change the application
outlook is using to open *.jpg's.
 
This is not caused by Outlook but it is a general Windows setting;
Control Panel-> Folder Options-> tab File Types

You'll need to change the association in windows to make .jpg files open via
a different program. Go into windows explorer and go up to tools - file
options - and then into file types. Then browse to the .jpg extension, by
using scroll bar go down to this file type and select it then click the
change button... A program box should come up then, select the program you
want to associate with these files and check the check box that reads always
use this program for opening these files types. It should then open .jpg
files with the program you associated with it no matter where you view the
file from (i.e. explorer, outlook, etc.)
 
Thanks for your help
