Hi,
Excuse for my English. I need to know which processes are attached to
a file;
for example if I open a txt file with notepad.exe, this process is
attached to this file.

Thanks a lot

Luigi
 
I think that he wants to know what processes are currently accessing a
file, not what the file associations are. I'm not sure how to do that, but
I'm sure it's been covered before.
 
Yes I want to know what processes are currently accesing a file...

Luigi,
It sounds like you are describing file associations. For example the
default
file association for .txt is Notepad. These are all controlled by entries
in
the Registry.
Here is an article that covers some of this:
