This is, strictly speaking, NOT a Sparx question directly, but it does affect MY usage, so I hope someone can help me.
For most file types in my Windows machine, I can create a default program to Open the file and any additional programs that I can choose to open with. For example, my .jpg file type is set to open by default with Paint.Net but also has 4 other products I can use to open it with.
This presents itself on the context menu as a bolded Open menu item AND an Open With> direct sub-menu item. I can click on Open With> and get the list of programs to open the file with (as a sub-menu) and the "Choose the Default Program..." menu item.
I want to open my .eap files with 4 programs: The latest version of Sparx EA (default), build 909 of Sparx EA (the last, fast version - used for automation), MS Access for DB direct work and further automation and an editor for the EAP Shortcut files.
With my .eap files however, there is NO Open With> sub menu, but only the Open With... dialog menu item, which takes me directly to the Choose Program dialog which has the [X]Always use the selected program to open this kind of file - marked!
So if I want to open the .EAP file with anything other than the default I have to make sure I unmark the checkbox and select the program appropriately.
After a while this gets wearing and the possibility of mis-assigning the default program always present.
So, how can I set up things so the my .EAP file's context menu behaves like my .jpg file menu?
TIA,
Paolo
