how do I change the application used to view source in Outlook

T

Todd is tuff

When I right click in the body of a message it gives an option "View Source".
Somehow the application that opens got set to Edit Plus, but my version of
Edit Plus is expired.

I want to change the application that is used to textpad or something else.
How do I do this?

You can set your default HTML editor for Windows in Control Panel-> Internet
Options-> tab Programs

Good try but that doesn't solve it in this case. I already had Textpad set
as my default html editor. Any other ideas?
