Default How do I stop Excel opening up my PDF documents

Hi,

I doubt that this is an Excel issue it's to do with file associations in
Windows. Go to any PDF on your computer and right click it and click 'Open
With'. Adobe reader should appear in the list so select it and then check

'Always use the selected program to open this kind of file' OK

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

Hi thanks in advance,
Every time I open up a pdf through email etc, Excel opens it up in excel.
How do I stop this from happening?
All the PDF's show in the email with an excel icon document image?

Many thanks Isagold
