Picture editing in InDesign

[tjc240e]

How can i get Photoshop be my default picture editor in InDesign? Current when i Graphics | Edit Original it goes to the Microsoft Office Picture Manager. I would like this to go to Photoshop instead... but i could not find an options page in indesign? Is this something in windows that i need to setup?

Anyone Know?

Thanks.

...i would check the properties off an image file, i am on mac but i believe there is a similar function in windows. Right click an image files icon and choose properties, look around in there for an "open in default application" option or something similar...

There's another way which you may find easier. This is from InDesign's Help menu:

To edit a linked file in its original application, you can also press the Alt key (Windows) or the Option key (Mac OS) as you click on the placed file in the document layout.
