Quest allows you to specify your favorite Word Processor to use when editing Rich Text Fields. To configure this option, select 'File', 'Properties' and 'Application'. Once the Application Property window appears, select 'Ext. Word Proc'. Now you can select if you want to enable support for the External Word Processor. You can also specify the location of the .exe file that launches the Word Processor. Keep in mind that this can be a .BAT, .CMD or .EXE in Windows or OS/2, and can be any executable file in Linux.

You can also specify what name you want Quest to refer to your favorite Word Processor as. This name will be the text on any button that launches your favorite application.

If you wish Quest to automatically close the word processor once you reimport the Rich Text, you can specify to do so here also.
