Outlook 2003 uses GoLive as the signature editor - change to Word

[Gardennut]

My signature editor is choosing GoLive instead of Word for editing purposes.
How do I change it to Word? Thanks.

Did you try setting the default HTML editor to Word?

I am having the same problem.

I have set Word as default editor. Tools>Options>Mail Format>check the box.

When on the Mail Format Tab and I click on Signatures at the
bottom>Edit>Advance Edit then Go Live launches as default editor. I can not
figure out how to change to MS Word. All my other computers launch Word.

I went to MS website and this is what it says:

Many file types in Microsoft Windows XP and Windows 2000 are registered to
be opened by a particular program. For example, Notepad starts when you want
to open a text (.txt) file. You can change the program that starts when you
open a file of a certain type.

1. In My Computer or Windows Explorer, click the Tools menu, click Folder
Options, and then click the File Types tab.
2. In the Registered file types list, click the file type you want to open
with a different program, and then click Change.
3. In the Open With dialog box, select the program you want to use, and then
click OK.
4. Click OK in the Folder Options dialog box.

The problem is that there are tons of extensions and I cannot figure out
which one to change or if this is even the correct information for what I
want to do.

Thnak you for any help.

BTW-I followed the links above and could not find the answer either.

You need to change the links for html and htm or go into Internet options
(in control panel) and change the default HTML editor to Word.
