In this case, I am am talking abouts a graphic writer III file that I 
would like to double click & have GWIII open it. So I assume a "linkage" 
must exist? Funny however that it wont work :-(


:      You can use IconEd to edit an icon file (in the ICONS/ folder) in order to
: associate an icon to an application. In IconEd, you load the icon file (which may have
: several icons), select the icon you want to associate, click on the Icons menu, and
: select Attributes. Then, you can set the Filetype to match and pathname of the
: application which is supposed to start when you click the icon.

I'll see if I have luck w/ that sometime. Meanwhile it may be ewasier to 
tell students just to open GWIII first!
