I had to remove the old %1 arg from "notepad.exe       %1" to just to "notepad.exe", and voila! ..er, in this case.. hurra!              I don't think I would have noticed the extra step to select "E)dit" and then       "Open with exT)ernal" in the original reply window.              Calling an editor within the original editor is a bit weird.              Did you notice that while you are busy in the external editor, there is yet       another window underneath:               - Diese Nachricht wird im externen Editor bearbeitet.        - Startbefehl: "H:\Apoint\notepad.exe H:\Apoint\APoint1.msg"              Your persistence paid off!
