My learning curve seems to have stopped with even the most basic tasks. My latest hangup is opening files from emails, which should be a brainless procedure!
1. Whenever I open an attached file, why am I always asked "what application would you like to use?" Should I use Preview, should I use NeoOffice...I don't know! My PC would simply open the darned file without being told to do so!
2. After I tell it HOW to open it, I then have to click on the file in a separate box in the upper right hand corner to get it to actually open. Why this seemingly unnecessary step?
3. Why does TextEdit keep popping open whenever I attempt to open these documents, even if I have chosen NeoOffice to do so?
Any help would be very appreciated, before I do the unthinkable (become an "unswitcher")!!
