However associating rosters with army builder will not cause your roster to be loaded when army builder starts, but it will start army builder (and then you can do the standard file->open roster deal to open your roster). To associater .rst files with army builder you must 1)Open a Windows Explorer 2)Choose VIEW from the toolbar, and select FOLDER OPTIONS 3)Choose the FILE TYPES Tab 4)Click the NEW TYPE Button 5)For Description of type put something witty like ARMY BUILDER ROSTER 6)For Associated Extension use .RST 7)Down below the Actions box, click on NEW 8)When the window pops open in the Action box type open (lowercase is fine) 9)Then Click the browse button, fine wherever your ARMYBLDR.EXE is located (mine is handily stored in C:\Program Files\ArmyBuilder) select it and click on the OK box/ 10)This should return you to the previous window, click CLOSE 11)Again, returned to a even more previous window, click CLOSE again 12)Enjoy being able to launch Army Builder by double clicking on rosters no matter which zip disk or hard drive they are stored on! As a secondary thought, it may be handy if at some point (say AB 2.0) Army builder would open rosters, and their associated data files any time you open a roster this way. I see that it would require some redesign, as currently you also have to completely exit AB in order to change game sets since all that information is gathered at program load time instead of after AB is residing and running in memory. Just keep this idea in mind when heading to the next version Rob, thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from this group, email armybuilder-unsubscribe@egroups.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ For the fastest and easiest way to backup your files and, access them from anywhere.

I've got a shortcut to Army Builder hanging around on my quicklaunch bar, which works quite well. >As a secondary thought, it may be handy if at some point (say AB 2.0) >Army builder would open rosters, and their associated data files any >time you open a roster this way.

I asked Rob about this some time ago, and he said there were "issues" of some sort when you registered file types with Windows.
