Many file extensions have a program associated with them: for example .HTM will be associated with an Internet browser. When exporting from EscapeE you can check the box marked Run the associated program after creating the file which will be enabled if there is a program associated with the file type you are creating. Once the file has been created the associated program will be called to view or process it.
It is possible to change the programs 'associated' with a particular file extension. For example, you may wish to open CSV files with the RedTitan Database program. To do this from Windows® Explorer:
| 1. | Right-click a file with the extension .csv. |
| 2. | Select Properties from the pop-up menu. |
| 3. | Click Change... from the 'General' page of the dialog. |
| 4. | Scroll down the list of programs. Select RTDB (usually located in the RedTitan\Software folder) then click OK. |
