Hi all,

Is there a Windows function that would return the app needed for a file of a certain file extension? e.g. pass into it ".pdf" and it returns the full path the the Acrobat reader which I can then fire up with:

RUN /N &lcAcrobatPath &lcDocFileName

(where lcDocFileName contains the full path to a file name)

I currently have a function that gets the information for Acrobat from a registry entry - but it only does .pdf files What I would prefer is something where I pass it an extension and Windows comes back with the name of the program that is supposed to open this file and/or the full file path. I then would use it to fire up the document they are pointing to.

Thanks,
Albert
