Hi

I want to change the file Edit association but cannot find a link to do this. I can change the Open with assoc but not edit

I want the html files to open with IE (which they do) but want to be able to right click EDIT on the html file and have DW open (Word 2007 opens at the moment)

Anyone know how to tweak this

Thanks

I've had a look in the registry, and I think you'll probably need to modify the following key to include the path to Dreamweaver:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\htmlfile\shell\Edit\command

If you don't want to do it manually using regedit, then this application may do the trick:
