Default file assocations/Open with settings


Forum|alt.badge.img+6

Hi all,

I am struggling to find a script that i can use to automatically set open with for certain file types:

 

i.e. .csv to open with Excel, .pdf to open with Adobe Reader 

 

I had a look at MSDA but couldn't find any working examples. 

 

TIA.

+1 for swda. It's one of those tools that Apple should provide.
