Adding "Open with"

XP Pro, SP3, updated yesterday.

Is it possible to add the "Open With" or "Edit" options to pop up menus
that don't have them?

I have a bunch of reports differentiated by odd extensions and to check
their contents I have to wade through the whole DA "Shall I go look up
something on the internet" default routine. If "Open with" or "Edit" were
available it would speed things up a lot.

For that matter, is it possible to change the default from "Shall I go
look up something on the internet" to "Look up locally?"

Thanks


For items that don't have 'Open With ...", click on the icon once and then
while holding the left hand SHIFT key, right click on the icon. The menu
that pops up should have "Open With ..." at the bottom of the top block.
Some file extensions are disabled from this functionality (e.g. .html
files).
