having visual studio recognize my own extension

Hi,

I have renamed aspx to .ret and would like visual studio to recognize .ret
file as an aspx file

recognize = show designer, intellisense, group up with corresponding
codebehind in solution explorer, etc.

Many thanks

Hmmm...I'd like to know how to do that, too.

Probably, the best place to ask that question is the MSDN Forums and,
in particular, the Visual Studio Extensibility Forum, which is manned by
the Visual Studio Development Team.

You will need to register with an MS Passport account to be able to post questions.

If it's not too much trouble, could you post back the answer here if you get it ?

Thanks...and good luck!

Here is the reply from MSFT Forum:
-------
You can get basic coloring by simply associating your extension with the
html editor. You can do so in the registry by adding a key under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACH INE\SOFTWARE\Mi crosoft\VisualS tudio\8.0\Langu ages\File
Extensions

Next, you will need to support for the web site related features. You can
check out the WebSiteProjectA ttribute.cs and
WebSiteProjectR elatedFilesAttr ibute.cs under
\VSIntegration\ Common\Source\C Sharp\

These files appear in the June VS SDK CTP and they show how to register new
extensions with a web editor.

It worked in my case :)
