Before I pull all my hair out in utter frustration, is it possible for someone to write a small programme (Windows exe file) that will allow me to change the associations of file types.
For example, if I called it with the parameters .mp3 and D:\player.exe like so..
FileTypeChanger.exe mp3 D:\player.exe
It would change the association for all *.mp3 files so they now open with player.exe
I have been mucking around with the registry all day and no matter what I do, Delphi will not let me change the parts that I need to. Probably an administrator/access denied thing, I don't know.
However, it really makes me mad that Zoom Player, DIVX Player and WMP seem to have no problem with this, supposedly simple task and yet I'm getting nowhere!!!
