Working with Unknown File Extensions
See Also
If you want to work with a file of a type that the IDE does not recognize,
you can associate it with one of the file types that the IDE is familiar
with.
To register a file extension as belonging to a specific file type:
- Choose Tools > Options from the main menu and click Advanced Options in the Options window.
- In the left pane, expand IDE Configuration > System > Object Types.
- Select the node of the object type you want to add the file extension to.
- Select the Extensions and MIME Types property and add your extension to
the list.
-
For some object types, such as Java objects, it is not possible to add an extension.
