G'day there Graham,

I find this annoying also. I use FireFox, but clicking a link from
in Word uses only IE. The Web Options dialogue in Tools | Options |
General only gives choices of which version of IE to use.


Make sure it is set from Windows Control Panel Internet Options.



In Win XP there is no option to set the Browser. It assumes you're
using IE. Under the "Programs" tab you can set the HTML Editor; Email;
Newsgroups; Internet Call; Calendar; Contact List.

Nothing refers to any options for a different browser. Searching
Help found exactly nought.

Interesting - I use Firefox and when I click a link in a Word document,
it opens.......Firefox!

I DID have problems with this at one time (although not Word, it was
another app) and found this little app VERY useful.

This allows you to set the Default browser per user and it solved my problem
