Winzip & Right Click - How do I do this?

[Mike Curry]

I am creating a program that will encrypt files with a new extension, how do
I automatically launch my program when the particular extension ".bh" is
double clicked on (as well as change the file to display my icon?)

Also how would I go about adding "Encrypt this File" / "Decrypt this File"
to the right click menu in explorer?

Any help appreciated,
Mike Curry

Sorry-- I am using VB.Net

This is in VB5/6, but you should be able to translate it fairly easily
- basically, you need a number of registry entries so that Windows
will know what file extension to associate with your app:
