Hello all,
Using csharp, how would I get the application name that opens any given
extension?
I'm interoping with Office to provide an in house service to convert office
files to pdf.
Provided a file path, I need to determine if the file is excel, word,
etc...and I don't want to simply
rely on a HashTable of extension keys and application names to accomplish
this.
Any help or direction is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Patrick

Hi,
I'm not very clear of what you want from your post, but you can search the
apps mapping by checking the registry.

That's not entirely reliable. Your best bet is to create a MIME type table,
such as that used by Internet Information Services. It can be a flat file or
stored in a database.
