Open/Display File

[Coaxecva]

Hi,

I want to ask how to open/display a file like we double click to this file in windows. Not like read/open file such as fread or ifstream...

Thank you.

Have a look at MSDN topic CWinApp::EnableShellOpen

Think about ShellExecute()

@..Victor Sir..

Can you explain me why did you suggest to register file type before ShellExecute().

We can easily use ShellExecute() to run any program or others.

Yes, after registering!
