Launching NWC/NWP from Hyperlink

Noteworthy Composer & Noteworthy Player

Setting Up Your Browser

to Recognize and Launch .nwc files

From Netscape (tried on Netscape 3.01)

Pull down "Options" Menu
Select "General Preferences"
Click the "Helpers" tab on the General Preferences box
Click the button to "Create New Type" at the lower right of the display window
A box will appear saying "Configure New MIME Type"
- For web pages on Tripod (this one) and Earthlink, the Type is "application" and the Subtype is "nwc"
- For some other web pages, including www.noteworthycomposer.com, the Type is "application" and the Subtype is "octet-stream"
After saving the Type and Subtype, type "nwc" in the File Extensions field
Right below the File Extensions field, select "Launch Application" as the action to be taken
Now you will have to enter a file path for the application to launch. This will typically be as follows:
- Noteworthy Composer -- C:\Program Files\Noteworthy Composer\Nwc32.exe
- Noteworthy Player -- C:\Program Files\Noteworthy Composer\NWPlayer.exe
- The easiest way to set up the file path is by using the "Browse" button

From Netscape 4.7

Pull down the "Edit" menu
Select "Preferences"
Select "Applications"
A dialog box should appear for you to enter the information on the new application

From Microsoft Internet Explorer (tried on IE 4.0)

Internet Explorer appears to be launching the application properly without programming a helper. Please email me if you have difficulties or a procedure. You can also consult Noteworthy Composer's website which has extensive online support.
