Incrementally aggrandizing my 'net worth
Spent some of it agonizing over mechanic-ing with the filetype associations in Windows98SE. Groove was relying on IE to print some kinds of data. It was not working. I tried the Groove Forums with no success in receiving advice. In NoteTab groups on Yahoo I got the reccomendation of a PC Mag 3rd Party tool to fool with the associations. - LO - there was a synthesized file type htmlfile that Windows tools were not reporting. And NO simple filetypes for .htm or .html files. I killed htmlfiles with the 3rd party tool, and re-created useful filetypes for the docs in question. Now Groove nuggets can be printed, with the clumsy intervention of IE opening the file that is temporarily in TEMP. Nothing is obvious in its breakage, so far. I do have backups.
