Question

I've got a file extension and I'd like to get the name of the application (if there is one) that will be invoked when I ShellExecute a file of that type. This is a WTL/C++ app. Is there any sample code out there that does this?

Thanks!

twk,

You're probably looking for the Win32 AssocQueryStringByKey Function.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb773473(VS.85).aspx

The ASSOCSTR value that specifies the type of string that is to be returned:

typedef enum {
    ASSOCSTR_COMMAND = 1,
    ASSOCSTR_EXECUTABLE,
    ASSOCSTR_FRIENDLYDOCNAME,
    ASSOCSTR_FRIENDLYAPPNAME,
    ASSOCSTR_NOOPEN,
    ASSOCSTR_SHELLNEWVALUE,
    ASSOCSTR_DDECOMMAND,
    ASSOCSTR_DDEIFEXEC,
    ASSOCSTR_DDEAPPLICATION,
    ASSOCSTR_DDETOPIC,
    ASSOCSTR_INFOTIP,
    ASSOCSTR_QUICKTIP,
    ASSOCSTR_TILEINFO,
    ASSOCSTR_CONTENTTYPE,
    ASSOCSTR_DEFAULTICON,
    ASSOCSTR_SHELLEXTENSION,
    ASSOCSTR_DROPTARGET,
    ASSOCSTR_DELEGATEEXECUTE,
    ASSOCSTR_MAX
} ASSOCSTR;

My guess is that you want ASSOCSTR_FRIENDLYAPPNAME.

Answer 2

DWORD dwSize = 255;
TCHAR sBuffer[MAX_PATH] = {0};
HRESULT hr = AssocQueryString(0, ASSOCSTR_EXECUTABLE, _T(".htm"), _T("Open"), sBuffer, &dwSize);
CString csExt;
csExt.Format(_T("%s"), sBuffer);
AfxMessageBox(csExt);

Answer 3

Sorry, no code, but some useful information. See this related question: how-does-vista-generate-the-icon-for-documents-associated-to-my-application

It asked about icons, but it turns out the program associated to an extension is stored in the same place in the registry as the icon for that extension.
