How change file associations for Access Hyperlinks?

B

brss

One of the fields in my Access Database is a hyperlink field. When I try to
hyperlink to a jpg file, it is trying to use Microsoft Photo Editor which
will not handle the size of files that I am attempting to connect to.

I have checked Windows Explorer File Associations and it correctly shows
that jpg will be opened with Windows Picture and Fax Viewer.... However, that
is not what Access is using.

How do I change the program that is used by Microsoft Access to open
specific types of hyperlinks?

HI

Open My Pictures (or where ever it's stored) right click the picture icon
and select Opens With from the list. This is a good method to use as you can
define an Open With for each picture if you want.

Hope this helps
