Opening JPGs into IE

[jaysee]

"Thank you" to everyone who offered advice on how to get multiple photo files to open into the same IE browser window. I finally solved the problem using the following instructions from Microsoft support:

1) In Windows Explorer, click the View menu
> 2) Click Folder Options and click the tab "File
> Types"
> 3) Find "JPEG Image" and click the Edit button
> 4) Click the Edit button and check the check-box
> "Use DDE"
> 5) Copy "C:\PROGRA~1\INTERN~1\iexplore.exe"
> -nohome into "Application
> used to perform action"
> 6) Copy "file://%1",,-1,,,,, into "DDE Message"
> 7) Copy WWW_OpenURL into "Topic" (Note: Leave
> "DDE Application Not
> Running" blank)
> 8) Save the change by clicking OK
