You could extract the program associated with .TXT files from the registry
and name that explicitly in ShellExecute()... still a bit of an assumption,
but if they have nothing set up for .TXT then they deserve nothing to happen

(If ShellExecute() fails, you can simply tell them where the file is and to
manually edit it).
