I am using VS2003 and I am using files with myExt to launch my application.
The file type was setup in the Setup Project under File Types. This all
works well but now I won't to use Notepad to edit files with myExt.
In the Setup Project I created another file type, but using the same
extension, and created an Edit option. Originally I only had an Open option.
In the Command property of the Edit file type I selected notepad.exe from
the system folder but then I got the warning:
"WARNING: 'notepad.exe' should be excluded because its source file
'C:\WINDOWS\sys tem32\notepad.e xe' is under Windows System File Protection."
I tried excluding it by setting the exclude property of Notepad.exe in the
system folders in the File System page but then I get an error:
"ERROR: Command 'notepad.exe' for file type 'MyExt File' has the 'Exclude'
property set to 'True'"
How should I setup this file type to be edited using notepad?
Thanks for your help
