I am not sure if this is the same on Vista, but on XP you open Windows
Explorer. Select Tools/Folder Options/File Types (tab). There you should see
a "New" button. This allows you  to add a new extension type. The ones that
show up in the list are only those that have already been registered.

Good luck,

I have come across an odd one: a client called to say that Vista couldn't
open a .doc file on her computer: the error message said there was no
program associated with that type of file. She uses WordPerfect 10 and has
no MS Office products on her computer. So I told her to go to Control Panel/
Default programs then click on Associate a file type or protocol with a
program. Much to my surprise, the file types listing did not include .doc
and I could see no way to add a new file type not in the list.
