I find that the "HTML Table Viewer" on Pipeline Pilot v8.5.0 client is configured by default to include a "Run Program (on Client)" component with the CommandLine Parameter value of "internetexplorer.application \\\$(HTML Filename)." Using Pipeline Pilot v8.5.0 on Microsoft Windows 8 Enterprise x64, the "HTML Table Viewer" does not open a browser and does not report any errors. It seems that this component may be incompatible with Windows 8.

I found that if I manually change the CommandLine to "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe" \\\$(HTML Filename) then the component works as expected an Firefox is used to render the results.

Is there a way to get the HTML components to use the default web browser properly on Windows 8 without manually editing each instance of the component and changing the CommandLine value?
