Panther upgrade wrecks stack bindings

[Thierry Arbellot]

Hi Jim,

I don't know yet about Panther, but you can try this (it works with 
Jaguar) :

select a stack which extension is rev
open the contextual menu (control-click)
select get info
expand open with
select the Rev app you want to open with
click Change all button

Hope it helps.

Regards.

Thierry.
