This dialog lets you associate file extensions to open with the program. The dialog in Project Analyzer controls file extensions associated with Project Analyzer and Project Metrics. A similar dialog in VBA Plug affects Office file extensions associated with VBA Plug.
Check the file extensions you wish to associate with the program and press .
Verb is displayed in the pop-up menu that opens when you right-click the file in Windows. There may be zero, one or more verbs for a given file extension.
Associating or unassociating a file extension does not modify other existing associations. You can still open up a file in its usual editor or programming environment by double-clicking it as before.
Uncheck a file extension if you don't want to use it with this program. This will remove the settings the program has made but not any other settings. If you wish to clear all associations, press and then .
If the Auto-associate at startup option is selected, the program automatically re-creates any lost associations each time it starts. If the option is not selected, the file associations are not monitored at startup. As other programs may modify the settings, the associations you set in this dialog may eventually get lost. Use auto-association when other programs interfere with your settings. Disable it when you don't want this program to manage your settings automatically.
This dialog may not display all file types the program can open, if they are not available on your computer. Applications usually register their own file types when installed. If you later install new applications, their file types will appear in this dialog if supported by this program.
File associations are saved per user. If there are several users on a PC, they can have different file associations.
