    Question Associating file types ( BCPPB 5.0 )

    Hello. I would like to ask is it is possible to associate file types from inside of an application (BCPPB 5.0) and if it is then how? Thank you.

    You will have to do it with registry keys, I don't know where to make it exactly since I have never tried this before. Although .bcppb 5.0 is not a valid extension. .bcppb would probably work, but if I were you I would search for File association registry. Once you know where and what should be in the key you can use the Win32 API to set the key.

    I have meant Borland C + + Builder 5.0. And I have read the JavaRunner article, but I would like to associate already existing file type.
