It appears the only way to open a .CLP file is to run clipbrd.exe, and
use File menu> Open to select a saved .CLP file. I see the same
behaviour as you when I double-click a .CLP file. The registry entries
are correct as far as I can see, and adding the full path to the
shell\open\command does not affect it.

I vaguely recall it working in Win95 or 98, but I don't have those handy
right now to check. I would not be surprised if some patch of a
security vulnerability caused this reduced functionality. I recall
there was a malformed CLP file buffer overflow vulnerability in a Corel
app a few years ago

It does not work in Win98SE and WinMe as well?

clipbrd.exe was included in WinXP, 2000, ME, 98 and probably 95 and Windows
for Workgroups. It no longer exists under Windows 7.

I've discovered a lot of the old 95/98 files don't actually
need the registry and thus installs, so that might be worth
trying. I still use Cardfile from my old win98 machine. Only
thing it won't do is dial a phone numbe & I don't care about
that. Con: the tld .crd is also used for an XP program
(Cardspace, I think it is) so expect association issues here &
there.

....but you *can* copy the XP version of clipbrd.exe to the Vista or
Seven system32 folder, and it works....at least on 32-bit Windows.
