Comment:

When I open Word, Excel, etc., and click on one of the files that I have previously created, I get the message, "This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action." Also, on Peachtree, I get the message, "peachw.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows." Does anyone out there have an answer?
