Interdev and .shtml files

[skeelo]

Interdev does not recognize .shtml files as a valid extension. I would like to be able to work with .shtml just like .html, anyone know how I could accomplish this? If I open a .shtml file there is only one view, and no tag colors.

Ok I got .shtml to open like HTML files (the first part of that article) but I cannot get the colors to work. The article says to go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\DevStudio\6.0\Text Editor\Tabs\Language Settings\HTML in the registry, but that key does not exist. I searched through the entire Interdev section in the Interdev section of the registry but was unable to locate a key called FileExtensions. Anyone have any ideas?

add this key manually? br

That's what I thought about, but it's not just one key, its folders as well. And I'm sure there will need to be more in the FileExtension key than just ;shtml. Look...they say to go to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\DevStudio\6.0\Text Editor\Tabs\Language Settings\HTML

Mine is not even in Microsoft\DevStudio, it's in \Microsoft\VisualStudio. So I went to the 6.0\Text Editor\ folder, but \Tabs does not exist, nor does any other folder with Language Settings. An HTML folder DOES exist however, but there is no FileExtensions key inside it. I could create this key but I'm sure there is more information for the key I would need. Any suggestions?
