Thanks for the reply Shawn. It's almost got me there (actually, this was
where I hit the block myself).
Rather than the Open With file, I need what I believe is called the working
folder or target directory maybe. Anyway, it's the default directory that
opens on the fileopensave dialog (any time you use the app to open a file or
save a file).
In XP is was right there with these. Called commands or something, a list
of all filetypes in an oh-so-convenient non-resizable tiny window with a few
buttons, one of them being Edit, where you would edit every property that you
would see when rightclicking any file of the type, along with a few other
ones.
This used to be accessable in XP from the OpenWith dialog (but these details
aren't available here from Vista), or under Folder Options, but again no
luck. I can't seem to access these particular properties.
For a few years my folder was D:\Devel and it has recently switched
something else, and I deleted the Devel folder after moving the project
location. But I didn't think of the registered working folder of the app, and
now I can't find it.
I've recreated the folder as a workaround, but would like to get it tied up
better. I should know this... driving me nuts.
If I really have to I'll take a registry key if anyone knows, but I'd prefer
not to.
Thanks again!
