Jane,
Go to Control Panel, then Folder Options, Select File Types, Scroll down to
..jpeg extension to see what program is chosen to open that extension.
Change it to Microsoft Office Picture Manage or some other picture program
and that should do it. (Do .jpe and .jpg while you are at it)

ps I am a "newbie" to this thing too, so typing in caps is considered
yelling!!
There is an etiquette section somewhere that gives helpful info on do's and
don'ts
in discussion groups.
I'm sure you meant no harm.
Go easy on her Bruce!!!
