      XPost: microsoft.public.vb.general.discussion, microsoft.public.vb       From: nobody@cox.net              If you explain the underlying problem in more details, maybe some posters       here can suggest alternatives. One way is adding Edit button in a toolbar so       it can be easily opened with the program of your choice. Another, is to make       a copy of the file into another folder, then start Windows Explorer with       that folder shown by default. Search MSKB for "explorer command line       options".              But the best option seems to be making a new extension, and perhaps add a       block of binary data at the beginning of the file to discourage editing.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
