Sue, if you have Win 98, try clicking on START, SETTINGS, FOLDER OPTIONS and
then click on the "File Types" tab for the window that comes up. Scroll down
the list until you get to JPEG file type, with JPEG highlighted, see if it says
to open with Kodak or MGI Photo Suite ... if it says Kodak, I believe you can
"change" the way it opens and tell it to always open with your MGI Photo Suite
by clicking "edit" and when the window comes up showing all the info about the
file type, click edit again ... should have a line showing *what* application
opens the JPEG file and out to the side should be "browse" ... you can browse
and choose another application to open the JPEG file.

I'm fairly new at this myself but I believe I am telling you correctly ... but
you may want to confirm it with someone else on the list. ... warm regards...
Carolyn
