Hi I am new to VB.NET (from vb6) and am trying to compile a program with file associations (done via a setup program).

I have successfully written my program in .NET but I have a problem when I compile the program.

The actual exe works fine, however in my Setup program I have used some file assoc.
When I right click a file and select OPEN WITH, my program's icon appears in the list but there is no name for the program!

For example:
Open With:

Notepad
Wordpad
Microsoft Visual Studio
Macromedia Dreamweaver
[icon]*
Browse . . .

*This is my program icon, but no name follows!

I know this is probably a simple problem, but things aren't as easy as they were in vb6 ;)

What do I need to do to display in the list along with the icon?
