I want to have certain items open in a program that is not listed in the drop
down box for that item. For example, for my Canon camera, I want it to open
with zoombrowser and yet zoombrowser is not one of my choices. One other
program wants to open with Omnipage version 14 - yet I have updated to
version 17 and it does not show in the drop down box. How can I add
programs. I am doing all this in the Autoplay portion of my Control Panel
and have Windows Vista Ultimate 64 bit. Thanks.

The choice of programs in the Autoplay drop-down box is determined
by the programs themselves. The relevant registry entries are written
when the software is installed. You can't easily do it yourself.
Check to see if there are any updates for the programs that
you want to see in the drop-down box.

And make sure that "Always open with this program is checked" - or not,
if you only want to do it one time :-)
