25th June 1999
A 'Send To' cascading
menu pops up when you right-click on an object... put a shortcut to NOTEPAD
in there! When I want to edit (or view) a text file that isn't registered with
Notepad, I just 'send it' to Notepad. Open the Run Command line (hit WINKEY+R
or click on the Start Button and select Run), type in "SendTo" without the quotes,
right click somewhere in the 'SendTo' Explorer window, make a New Shortcut,
and point it to "notepad.exe" (again, without the quotes) and then click 'Okay.'
Now, the only thing left to do is remember to use it!
