>>Does anyone know how to associated a certain extension with a program, using VFP or VFP API calls. I would like to associate the TIF extension with the wang imager windows 95 and with kodak imager for windows 98. Users can't seem to do this on their own. I have been doing it manually for so long it is second nature, but I cant get a 50 year old engineer to understand the concept even with the best documentation I could create.

David, pardon my ignorance, but what is a REG file and what does one look like?
