Hello Steve,

 VB>> Why does win95 explorer not recognize BTM files as executable?
 SS> Because you need to define it. Here is the JP solution:

Thanks Steve, I'll give it a try although mine does recognize normal BAT files
it's BTM files it doesn't recognize.

 SS> If your Windows configuration already allows you to edit the Properties
 SS> of batch files (file type "batfile") by opening an Explorer Window ("My
 SS> Computer", for example) and selecting  "View", "Options", then "File
 SS> Types", you don't need this file.

Do I still need it then?  I'm confused.. As I said BAT files are ok, not BTM.

Rgds, Vic
