[Ccil-user] Re: [Ccil-help] Opening attachments

[Steve Palmer]

I can't explain them.  I get through file attachments
using trial and error or not at all.  However, I did find
a couple web links which might help....

http://www.angelfire.com/biz/rhaminisys/fileasoc.html
    - free file association editor

I know nothing about this program.  I came across it while
searching the web for a list of common file types & programs.
Virus check it before you try it and you assume any and all
risk if it acts contrary to how it's described.  I am neither
endorsing it nor recommending it's use.

http://kg7ka.tripod.com/fileextensions.htm - a list of common file
extensions.  Scroll all the way to the bottom for links to a very
comprehensive list.

Good Luck,
-Steve-
