Does anyone know how I can choose for Developer Studio to open a report in any other browser besides IE? I know that I can run MRE online under Firefox and Mozilla, but I would like to be able to run test reports off of Studio with Firefox because files download much faster on it than with IE (at least I've noticed a significant lag therein).

Any clues?

Thanks!

Hi Gregson06,

This is a Windows function and not a WebFOCUS function. It depends on which browser is used as the default browser and not which one opens HTML/HTM files.
More information can be obtained on Microsoft's site at

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=284456

or Mozilla's site at

http://kb.mozillazine.org/Setting_Your_Default_Browser

This should help you change it.

As per the mozilla link, it seems some applications are hard-coded to run IE no matter what, I already have mozilla as default and Studio still opens IE upon running a report. No biggie, I'll just settle for the slight time loss, but nothing too critical.

Thanks for the links, RichH!
