I have a problem with setting up programs in Internet
Options. When I open this tab I have only Notepad and
Microsoft Excel(?) for HTML editor (no Word), for e-mail -
only Hotmail, Outlook and Lotus Notes (no Outlook Express
which is my default e-mail program)and the same thing for
Calendar and Contact list drop-down menus. What can I do
to have it correctd, for I would like to have Outlook
Express as e-mail program and Word as HTML editor?

Thanks, Ramesh.
I tried solution one and it worked. However, I am still
missing from drop down menus Word as an editor (but I have
Excel), and Outlook Express as an Address Book. Is it how
it's supposed to be and if not can it be fixed?

Elvart,

Open Registry Editor and navigate to:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.htm\OpenWithList

Create a sub-key named WINWORD.EXE
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.htm\OpenWithList\WINWORD.EXE]

Hi Ramesh,

I did what you told me to do, but still did not see Word
as an editor for HTML in a drop-down list in Internet
Explorer.
Any ideas?

Elvart,

In addition to the Openwithlist, you must also have this key:

HKEU_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\WINWORD.EXE

If that does not exist, try reparing Word / Office (depending upon the
version you use)
