Hi everyone, It's been awhile since I have a ? I have an acer 5100, laptop with vista (bought 2007)and a lexmark 2500 printer, when i scan something on the printer, to the computer it uses "ABBYY 6.0 fine reader" (which was on my system when purchased) automatically and opens the document in "Workpad", what i want is to use the Adobe fine reader 8 on my system (after addition) and be able to open the document in "microsoft works" that i also added after. Is this possible, the layout in wordpad is slightly different and I like "microsoft works" better. I think wordpad is the default and ABBYY reader 6.0 too, as a novice but willing to learn, is there a way i can change this?
Second part to my question- why when emailing a document typed in W.P.S. word processing do i have to change the text to RTF (rich text format) when saving the document from W.P.S. otherwise the people on the other end apparently cannot open the attachments in there computers...just curious?..Any help smart people would be appreciated?

beat me to it lighthouse!
