I have recenly upgraded to os/2 2.1 beta and am having a problem getting
data files and program objects to be associated with each other.  I have
tried using the online help, but I cannot find the "associate" tab to
which it referrs:

I want to be able to associate all .doc extentions with my word processor
wpwin, also I want to associate all .tbk extentions with a toolbook program
that won't run without a toolbook specified.

HOw do we change the properties of an icon (like in windows you can use the
properties diagogue box??)

Thanx,
Thomas
