Yes and know.  The registry is used to make the association but if you want 
to interact with the context pop-up menu then it is a bit more advanced. 
This has been covered many, many time before on these groups - I would 
suggest a Google search.  Also, Remy has a component on his web site that 
wraps the file extension / registration process.
