Associating avi files on a network

[hugginsn]

Hi Everyone.

 

Hopefully someone will be able to give me a hand with this request.

 

We're trying to associate all avi files to be run through quicktime all over our network - but this being done by some kind of script.

 

I understand the open with function but we're working on a school campus with 500 machine and 1700 users +

 

Does anyone have any idea how this could be done?

 

Many Thanks

This too should work. You can insert it into a logon script:

 

ftype avifile="C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe" "%1"
assoc .avi=avifile

 

Just change the directory to wherever you have Quicktime installed.
