To add to that, on Windows, a file 'associated' with the application FRAME, when double-clicked, will open in the open instance of FrameMaker -- anything from 4.0 to 6.0, regular or ethyl (SGML) -- regardless of which is the "default" version as far as Windows is concerned. So to force a Frame file to open in a given version on a system with multiple versions, just open that version of Frame first, then double-click the file. For convenience, you can put shortcuts to these versions in a number of places -- desktop, Start menu, or the Quick Launch toolbar (Win98). Tom Neuburger Lester C.
