The ling is - I don't have WinRAR on this machine, and it still won't do it. Windows pays no attention at all to who "officially" owns a file extension (unlike, for example, Apple), so I cannot think of a single reason this should happen, unless there is something corrupt about the registery entries for Revolution tht is making it impossible to associate.
I'll have to try uninstalling and re-installing and see what happens (my .rev files haven't been associated with Revolution since I installed 2.01 then uninstalled 2.0 and the uninstall stripped out the associations). >----- ------- Original Message ------- ----- >From: "Gary Rathbone" >To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Sent: Fri, 25 Jul 2003 20:42:06 > >> When you go into properties and click "Change" >the dialog that shows up >> with the list of Apps should have an "Other..." >button.
