[Simply Computers] Re: Open Office and .pdf formats

 

go to one of the files you want to open and click it once with the Right mouse button.

In the menu that opens, see if there's an "Open With" ... if so, select that, then select the program you want to open it with (Adobe Acrobat).

If you don't see the Open With selection, hold down the Shift key when you right click the file.

In the past  have save documents in Open Office.doc format and also exported to .pdf format (having 2 copies in different formats).  Now when I receive anything in .pdf, the little red "A" that tells you the type of file it is  no longer on the attachment to be opened.
