You can associate files this way, but we recommend using {CONFIG, Associate file types}.
If you chose this Explorer method, it does not set up the association with "DDE". Therefore, if you have {CONFIG, Misc, Instance control} set to "0" (default), the opened file will always open in a new instance of VEDIT.
If you use {CONFIG, Associate file types}, it will open in any existing instance of VEDIT.
Most users might not care about this small difference, but I just want to point it out. :-)
