Default .DBX Associations

Hello All,

I've had an idiot attack !! I tried to view a .dbx file outside of O.E.6
and wound up associating all my .DBX files with Outlook Express.EXE
I can still download and view my outlook express mail but I don't know
what will hoppen if I don't fix it.
Is there a way to unassociate these .dbx files from OE6 back to the
original "no association"? All I seem able to do currently is to associate
them to a "different" program instead of "none"?

Oh My ............ What have I done ??
Thank You

Default .DBX Associations

This was answered in another newsgroup.

If you must post identical messages in more than one newsgroup please
crosspost, i.e. please place all of the newsgroups in the Newsgroup field of
one message, separated by commas. That way when someone reads the message
in one newsgroup it will be marked as read in all of them. In addition, an
answer posted in one newsgroup will generally show up in all of them.

This is usually not necessary since most of those who answer posts read
more than one newsgroup.

Thanks Frank,

I'll follow your suggestions in future posts. If I feel I need to post
in more than one Newsgroup I will "crosspoint" the Groups
