Registered File Types

[stever]

How can you associate file extensions to applications
(Windows 200 Server)when the options are "greyed" if
viewed under folder options ?

Hi Stever,

On computers running Windows 2000 Terminal Services, the UI is locked down so that no
one can change file type associations (not even administrators). If this is the
cause the following Microsoft Knowledge Base Article explains how you can enable this
functionality .
