This sounds like an installer issue, or possibly an OS issue. If you can verify (ResEdit) that the type and creator code of the installed file are set properly, and if the file name exension matches the value described in your info.plist, then it would seem your file's good and the installer has not monkeyed with your creator code, leaving the OS as the culprit. If it is the OS, the problem should be evident with at least some other apps. Try checking the Apple support discussion forums to see if others are reporting this among the many critical errors reported in v10.3. You may be able to work around it, but if maintaining appropriate file type associations is among the other problems frustrating folks with 10.3 (I'm waiting for v10.3.1 in light of the many reports) you can rest assured that Apple will recognize that as critical and issue a patch ASAP. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World Media Corporation ___________________________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.FourthWorld.com Tel: 323-225-3717 AIM: FourthWorldInc _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
