Jack,
Thank you for your assistance. When I did double click on the file..”outside of ae”…it did in fact open in Microsoft Office Doc Imaging. I did what you suggested, right clicked and then opened it in PS CS.
Then I closed out everything. Opened AE…brought the same file onto the time line. Went to edit..scrolled to “edit original”. and when I clicked this time…I got that notice that AE could NOT find the program that the file was created in. The file is a simple PS JPEG file. Should I attempt to take off Office and reinstall?…or reinstall Adobe Creative Suite?
So many choices…so little time.
Thanks,
