Howdy Gordon, Bob, and anyone else left here,

I agree w/Bob, but would add that individual files can be designated  
to open with NWP (or whatever you choose) which over-rides the system  
default.

As a sort of work-around, I have chosen to have NWP save to .rtfd  
(regardless of whether it contains graphics), which in turn I have  
set system default to open with NWP.

But come to think of it, somehow if I save TextEdit .rtfd files, they  
open by default with TextEdit.  Then if I edit with NWP and save,  
they open by default by NWP.  Editing again with TextEdit directs  
them back there.  However, if I delete the graphic and have NWP save  
the file in .rtf format, it opens by default with TextEdit.  So .rtf  
and .rtfd act differently.  Not sure how this happens, but I like  
that behavior— it just seems unexpected, now that I think about it.

This goes way beyond the original question, but I'll report my  
experience fwiw: Saving with the graphic into .rtf format with NWP  
makes a file that works fine with NWP, but opens by default with  
TextEdit, which does not show the graphic.

Meanwhile fwiw, I keep TextEdit and NWP handy in the dock and/or  
finder window title/tool bar so I can of course drag to the one of my  
choice.
