if like me your old school and like the command prompt, for nt/2000 use the 'assoc'
command. (eg I associate bat files as text files (saves me accidently running them.
I can still run them direct from dos prompt, but clicking on them in windows opens
them in notepad)

The suggestion by ANNOYANCES.ORG is all well and good provided you have Administrative
rights in Windows 2000. If you don't then good luck creating simple file associations.
It truly is an annoyance.

First be sure to reset "hide extensions from knew files" from Explorer, I think you
think you have your_archieve.bat when you have your_archieve.bat.txt
Let me know if this resolved your problem
