Miscdas,Gary,
Thanks for this, unfortunately after step 7 nothing changes. I can "select
Revolution", but Rev is not added to any list or options. I can follow this
process for other file types eg .html and it works great.
Meanwhile .rev is now associated with wordpad, which is proving quite
interesting.
Cheers
Gary
On WIN XP pro, in less than 10 steps:=========
1. In the directory list, right click the stack name
the context menu is displayed.
2. On the context menu, select "open with"
the sub-menu is displayed
3. on the sub-menu, click "choose program"
the "Open with" dialog is displayed
4. on the "Open with" dialog, click the Browse button
a scondary "Open With..." dialog is displayed
5. Browse through the directory to find the Revolution.exe file and select
it. (Probably c:\Program Files\Revolution x.x.x\Revoluton.exe )
6. click Open
the "Open with" dialog is dispalyed with Revolution blah-blah selected
in
the list of applications.
7. select "always use the selected program to open this kind of file"
8. click OK
the dialog closes and your stack is launched
Now .rev will be associated with Revoluton.

Are you sure you've done it correctly? I just checked Rev2.0.1 on Win 2000 Pro. Revolution did NOT appear in the list of files at step 3. (This appears to be a registration problem at installaion--"well-behaved" Win apps are supposed to register when they install, as well as add an entry for the file-type association.)
I continued with the rest of the procedure and the behavior was as described in my prior post; i.e. "Revolution engine for win 32" appeared automatically in the list and was selected. At step 8, the Rev file that I had originally selected was launched as expected. .rev is now associated with revolution.exe, enabling launching of rev stacks by double-clicking.
So, this works for me on both Win XP pro and Win 2000 pro with Rev 2.0.1
