Just when I looked in the files of type combo box, in the file open dialogue, although the first option is in fact *.* (files of all types), the second (last) one is .rtf, so I sort of assumed that it would 'prefer' .rtf files, but I suppose, considering what you can do to a whole bunch of file types using, for example, TextPal, I should have known better.
