livelink and mime types

[brettsanders]

Does anyone have a mime.types file that they can share that contains any of the following mime types.
.sql (notepad - text/plain)
.dot (MS Word - application/msword)
.cmd (application/textedit)
.ora (open in Notepad- text/plain)
.rpt (Crystal report - application/x-rpt)
.eps (image/eps)
.psd (ADOBE Photoshop - image/psd or application/photoshop)
.wmv (video/x-ms-wmv)
.mht (archived HTML - opens in browser IE - message/rfc822)
.tif (image/tif)
.adf (SQR Report - open in Notepad- text/plain)
.flt (SQR Report - open in Notepad- text/plain)
.vsd (MS Viso - application/vnd.visio )
.cbl (cobol - open in Notepad - text/plain)
.sqr (SQR Report - open in Notepad- text/plain)
.sqc (SQR include file - open in Notepad- text/plain)



i'm finding that their is no ryhme or reason to mime types. I basically need these file types to download without changing the extension. I would like all of the association to happen at the PC level if possible.

2 Questions:

1. I assume you want to override any mapping already done in Livelink?

2. I assume that you want the native application registered on the desktop to open the file?

If this is the case, just setting a mime.type file won't be enough - you will also have to edit the OpenText.ini file. What version of LL are you using?
