You _REALLY_ don't want to change the names of the ebase files. These
file names are embedded in scripts, relationships, and calculations.
Great chaos would result. It's easier to map the .102 suffix to the
FileMaker application, so FileMaker would be called when you
double-click on an ebase file or shortcut. It's possible and easy,
but I don't know enough about Windows to tell you how to do it. Maybe
you have a system advisor who could do this.
