How to setup Word as my HTML editor in Win XP Home

[Peabody]

My current HTML editor is Notepad in Outlook Express and Internet Explorer. I would like for it to be Word but when I go into Internet Explorer Properties, Notepad is the only option. I am trying to change the editor because in Outlook Express I have to hit enter each time that I want to type on a new line.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT use word as HTML editor. You can save a word document as an HTML document, but do not use Word as HTML editor. Instead, try NotePad Plus, an improved version of Notepad, or if you want, download Netscape and use the built in Java console. Try "word wrap" so you don't have to hit enter for new line.

Why not use WORD as my HTML editor?

I checked "Word Wrap" in notepad and that works fine in notepad but not in Outlook Express. Anu other ideas?

Thanks for your help. By the way, I am using Windows XP Pro.

Anyone else got any suggestions?
