Why You are trying to do that?
Because I'm used to hide some doc from Word file open dialog box only
renaming the extension. And it would be interesting if someone double click
that rename extension files don't open on Word too.

Hi,
I'm sorry. I already did this question on Windows, Office
and VB NGs without
success. Maybe you can help me here.
When you double click on a file with *.DOC (or *.XLS)
extension, it is open
on the Word (or Excel) by Windows Explore. If you rename
the extension *.DOC
(or *.XLS), for example to *.DO_ (or *.XL_), Explorer
continue opening the
file on Word (or Excel). Maybe it verifies document
property and identifies
the file as Word or Excel document. Is it possible to
stop this behavior? I
want Explorer open only *.DOC, *.DOT and *.RTF files
extensions on Word.
I'm using Office XP on Win98.
TIA
.
