Awesome, thanks Richard. I knew someone would think of the obvious, which I had overlooked.

In eclipse I select open with and then browse to the external program I want to open mars and aars. Although now I've the default I can use the system default.

However, that option is not provided for whatever reason. The "Open With" option is available on other shortcuts on my machine, but not for this one. I have also tried restarting my computer, and that did not work either. Any other suggestions?

I have changed my settings for the .mar file to be associated with WinZip (Tools > Folder Options > File Types.....), but it is to no avail b/c Windows still associates that file as the aforementioned Microsoft file type. Has anyone else had this problem within their Windows environment? More importantly, has anyone fixed this problem in their Windows environment? Thanks, Sean
