I use InstallShield for installation and I have it write the
appropriate keys into the registry. I posted them here before...
You need three keys in the registry:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\hbp.File\shell\open\command Value = d:\wwhelp\wwHelp.exe "%1"
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\hbp.File\DefaultIcon Value = d:\wwhelp\wwhelp.exe,0
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.hbp Value: hbp.File
where hbp is the extension to set up
If you do this with VFP you have to build the entire tree
structure even though there's only a value at the end
of the tree.
