Probably the easiest way to fix this, but doesn't always work like you
expect is as follows...
- Hold down the SHIFT key and RIGHT-CLICK on one of the .c source
files.
- Select `Open With' from the pop-up menu.
- Scroll through the list of programs to find your C++ program (if it's
not there then click on `Other' and find the executable file for the
program on your HDD manualy.
- Click on the program in the list and then click the box that says
`Always use this program to open this type of file'.
- Click on the OK button.
If all goes well, then your C++ program should open up and load the
appropriate C file. If it does not, then you're best bet is to try to
re-install the program so that it will be able to associate the file
type itself in the install.
