I have a similar problem, but have been unable to come up with a working 
solution whereby DBT will always open .brf files in the file assoiations 
dialogue.  (It once worked, or seemed to work, perhaps on a former computer, 
in a former life perhaps...) .

Subject: [duxuser] brf file association


I'm having trouble changing the file association on my PC for .brf files. If
I right click on a .brf file, choose Open With, navigate to the Duxbury
folder and choose dbtw.exe, it still defaults back to try and open the file
with an older version of DBT that I no longer have. I've tried unchecking
the "always use this program when opening this type of file", but no matter
what I do, I can't get the file association to change. I've tried this
through Control Panel, Folders, File Associations as well, and I can't get
it to work.



At work my computer is defaulted to open braille files with Braille 2000 and
I also want to change that to DBT. I'm having the same problem there in that
I can't seem to change the file association.



Of course, if I open DBT and use the Open File command, I can open the
files. But if I want to open from a folder, I can't.



Does anyone have any suggestions?



Jean
