I'm a new registered user. The only user on several machines. On one machine in particular, when I try to open a file, nothing happens.
OS: W2000Pro. Applications are OfficeXP.
Files in question are on a thumb drive.
I'm stumped. Neither double-click nor "open" on the context-sensitive menu does a thing. I have to go out to the app and do a file open.
Any help appreciated, and Merry Christmas.

opening files
I moved a doc file to my c drive; it opened nicely. But xplorer also opened the doc file from the thumb drive. The problem seems confined to xls files. I moved an Excel file to the c drive. Xplorer failed to open it. Very strange.
The default option on right click is "open".
Thanks for your reply. --editormike

please download this debug version and run it as mentioned in the readme file: www.ps.ic.ac.uk/~umeca74/dbmon.zip
then pay attention what x2 writes when it fails to open the document and let me know
thanks
