Extension_Association Initialization Variable

Associates a file extension with the editor used when viewing a file.

Syntax

extension association = name of executable editor file

Example

Sets the editor to WinHelp.exe when viewing files with the .hlp extension:

.hlp = winhelp.exe

Remarks

This variable is used to override (for VSS only) the extension associations you have in Windows File Manager or Windows Explorer. You only have to use this variable for VSS running on MS-DOS.
