daddyalfie Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Hi: Whenever I use a and I click on the link, my computer always chooses "Microsoft Word" as the default e-mail program, rather than the preferred "Outlook Express". Is this a setting on my personal computer or do I have the format for the anchor-link wrong? Alfie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrea Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 It should be mailto:"email@address.com" -- and it's your computer settings that determine what program to open what with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkencreative Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 As Thelma said, this depends on your computer settings. If you want to change this (obviously, this will just effect your machine, not what program opens when other people click a mailto: link) take a look at: http://www.freeemailtutorials.com/microsoftWindows/settingDefaultEmailClient.cwd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
