RE: nt file types

I'll buy the comment about "using a proper operating system". However, when I open a *.sql file with tools other than the Informix SQLEditor (like wordpad, MSSQL Query Tool, Platinum Desktop DBA, or Oracle Worksheet) the files are not reregistered to open automatically with these other tools. Informix must be doing something in NT that these other tools are not doing, and it is driving me crazy!! paulw wrote: > > > > Annoying behavior on NT: Anytime I open a *.sql file through Informix > > SQLEditor tool, all *.sql files are reregestered to always open with the > > Informix SQLEditor tool, regardless of what they were previously > > registered > > to open with.
