[Nant-users] Off Topic: Associate .build files with xml
Title: Off Topic: Associate .build files with xml Hi, This is probably a dumb question, but is it possible to associate files with a .build extension to xml? In Visual Studio, files that have a .xml extension are rendered with practical coloring and formatting. It would be great to have this "schema" with .build files. Pat

In the Open File dialog in VS.NET, theres a small arrow beside the Open button. Click it and choose Open With... You'll get a list of options. Choose HTML/XML Editor. Click Set as default. VS.NET will now associate .build with XML. -- Arild Fines --- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com ___ Nant-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nant-users

I think he means having VS.NET open build files as though they were XML files, complete with syntax highlighting, indenting, etc No just as regular text files. Having said that, I don't think think there is a way to "associate" different file extensions like that. There might be something in the registry, however. -Griffin --- Arild Fines <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Hi, > > This is probably a dumb question, but is it > possible to associate > > files with a .build extension to xml?
