Hi
How do you tell Windows Xp that you have a Newton Package???. One day I
inadvertantly changed the look of my Newton icons in windows so that now
some work and others produce the message this is not a Newton package and
wont open them. I think I must have selected some other program to open them
but now dont know how to go back. Some packages open and others dont???
