Hi,

I'm using BCB 4. My application uses a special file extension
and with the help of an appropriate registry entry, I can open these
file
directly via the explorer.

These files are displayed in the explorer with the default icon of my
application:
Reg->WriteString("", Application->ExeName + ",0");

Everything works fine.

Now I want to "invent" another file extension with another icon. With
the line above, just the default icon is used (resp. the first icon
found in
the exe file).

If I want to use something like
Reg->WriteString("", Application->ExeName + ",1");
how can I add another icon to my application and make sure that
it is always this icon that is associated with my second file
extension?


Thank you

Stefan
