Lost Notebook

Feb 29, 2004 11:38PM PST

It would seem that gremlins in the form of Grandchildren (I think) have deleted ALL referenses to win notebook on my Me operating system. I have done a search and there is NOTHING now showing for this utility. Could anyone tell me how to get it back onto my machine as the windows software came pre installed on my comp.------Failing that, I am trying to "View Source" and it is this that is trying to open notepad. If first question is not possible how can I change the code to open with another utility (like Wordpad for example)??????? Thanks for any help.
