How to change a document type icon
I want to change the icon that appears on txt files. They were once
associated with NoteTab Pro and look like a red cross ensignia. I now use TextPad and have associated txt files with it. However when working from filetype dialog accessed from explorer/tools/folder options/file types I see no opportunity to change the file type. It is listed as: NoteTabPro txt and Opens with textpad. Its easy to change the `opens with' part but even with the advanced selection I see no way to change the type or its icon. One would expect the type to change to TextPad and have the TextPad icon but it does not. |

One would not expect that. Click restore then Advanced and change the =
icon. Open With has nothing to do with File Associations. It's a = superceding feature.=20 --=20 -------------------------------------------------------------------------= ------------------------- http://webdiary.smh.com.au/archives/...nt/001075.html =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3 D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3 D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D "Harry Putnam" wrote in message = ...
