What is the path the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer??

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support (More info?)

Using XP Home, SP2.

After installiation of Office 2003, the default program for viewing .TIF
images unexpectedyly changed from Windows Picture and Fax Viewer to MS
Office Document Imaging.

I know how to change the program association...but searches using
obvious file names/locations for the Windows Picture and Fax Viewer
name/location were unsuccesful.


Can anybody tell me what it's called and where it resides?

Thanks

As a means of further information, the viewer is not an executable in and of
itself, but rather is a function of the shimgvw.dll file as executed by
rundll32.exe.
