In Window98, one could get from Explorer Window to a file-associations dialog/window/tool that would let you change/add 'open', 'open with x', 'run', for a particular file type without using the registry editor, which is slightly dangerous. I have forgotten how to find it in xp, and no idea in w7. I would look in windows help and or control panel. -- Terry Jan Reedy
