Unassociating files with MSDEV editor

About this task

Note: Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 includes an Open with MSDEV operation in the list of operations associated with *.cpp and *.h files. If you have MVC++ 6.0, IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® can erroneously associate the source files with the Open with MSDEV operation instead of with the Open operation.

To make sure that Rational Rhapsody associates the MVC++ Open operation with the source files:

Procedure

  1. From Windows Explorer, select View > Options > File Types.
  2. Select a file type (for example, C Header File associated with the file extension H), then select Edit.

    The Edit File Type window opens. Generally, the first action listed is Open with MSDEV.
  3. Click New, add an "Open" action, and associate the Open action with your preferred editor application.
  4. Remove the Open with MSDEV action.
