I need to di this:
In Windows 2000, Click on Settings/Control Panel. Click on Folder
Options. Click On File Types, but I do not find Fie Types (I have Vista on my laptop)
B. Click on New. Type in ODE for the file extension. Then click on
OK
C. Now click on the "Advanced" button. If you want to change the
ICON, go ahead. More importantly, click on NEW in the Actions: portion
D. Under Action: type Open
Under application used to perform action, type Browse and find
xpp.bat. E.g. C:\xppall\xpp.bat. Click OK and click it
again. Click Close.

Hey,

Not exactly the same steps.

Right click on the file.
Click open with.
Click choose default program.
Click browse.
Browse to the bat file.
Click open.
Make sure there is a check in the :Always use the selected program to open this kind of file.
Click OK.

Not sure if that will work the same but sound similar.
