Go to the link panel, seect the image and click the edit button. It opens the application which is in your OS choosen, to edit the selected filetype.

You can double click with the direct selection tool on any image to open the application to edit that image.

Apologies for the late reply, thanks, I had to reload Photoshop as it no longer 'recognised' photos in ID. I could edit photos from ID in the manner you descibe, if I am understanding you corretly, but for numerous images this would be laborious.

Double clicking the image never gave me the option of editing in Photoshop, hence my question.
