Hi Mr Lost,

In XP you go to Start>Settings>Control Panel>Folder Options
click on the File Types Tab select your file extension from the list and
change the program it opens with in that dialog box. I imagine that
Vista would be very similar if not the same.

P.S. Changing file extensions is not a good idea unless you know
exactly what you are doing.
