Hyperlink problem

[a.janmohammadi]

Hello, guys.
When I hyperlink a text to a picture that is located on my PC, Excel opens it with Internet Explorer whereas i need to open it with Windows Picture Viewer, which is faster and easier to work with. How can I do this?

Thanks, everybody.

jpeg pictures??
***** backup registry first.
Registry Key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office\9.0\C ommon\Internet
new DWORD Name value ... Key = ForceShellExecute
add new DATA VALUE = 1.

Windows Picture Veiwer IS my default program to open images but in Excel it is not that way.
I don't know but it as easy as it looks nobody could help.
thanks anyway.
