Answer 1:
This is an unusual problem, but it has happened and
may be due to registry corruption following
installation of other software. Whatever the cause,
the following instructions should help. If problems
continue we suggest a full re-install of your
Milestones software (un-install first).
1
Right-click the file using
Windows Explorer. On the
pop-up menu, choose Open
With.
2
Next, on the menu which pops
up to the right, select
Choose Program.
3
A list of programs will be
shown. Select your
Milestones software. If it
does not appear use the
Browse to locate the
software.
4
Be sure to check the
Always use the selected
program to open this kind of
file
option. (see below).

Question 2:
I have Milestones Professional installed on my
computer. When I double-click on a file with an MLB
extension (or ML8, or MLA...), the Milestones Viewer
starts. I want Milestones Professional to start.
Similar Question:
When someone e-mails me a Milestones
Professional schedule and I click on the icon, the
Viewer starts instead of Milestones Professional.
Why is this?
Answer 2:
This is happening because the Viewer was the most
recently installed Milestones software on your
computer. Usually, the Viewer is not installed on
the same computer as the Milestones Professional (or
Milestones Simplicity, Milestones Project Companion)
software.
The solution is to "re-register" your Milestones
Professional software. Instructions are
provided for Milestones Professional 2008 and 2006.
They are also provided for Milestones Project
Companion and Milestones Simplicity.
Follow the instructions for the software you
are using:
