How to make Windows app default application
How can I make a default Windows for a particular file type application? For example, I would like to open .docx files using MS Word for Windows. Word I can use to open and navigate to a file for editing, but I want to double click on the file under OSX icon and open the file in Word. Ditto for Excel. I'm under Fusion 6.0.0 and Windows XP Pro.
In Fusion, I go to VM > Settings > Default Apps. The first option is to open Mac files with Windows applications, and he specifically mentioned MS Word for example. I checked this option and clicked Next on configure, but I see no option to select the default values asa Word and Excel for their records. Also, I checked to run the Mac applications folder Windows applications and applications do not appear in the folder.
A related question: How do I add Windows applications to the list, OSX open with?
Thank you
Hershel
Well, now when I do the standard thing for the default implementation (Get Info > open with), Word for Windows is presented as an option for docx files and Excel for Windows looks for xlsx files and I was able to use them as default values.

don't have Windows 7 disks, you can buy them in your machine to cheap system. If you don't like

How to make windows require a password during the installation of new programs?
How to make windows require a password during the installation of new programs?
Hello
You will not be able to circumvent the password that appears before the execution of actions (installing a new program) in a non administrator account. If you are logged on as administrator, and again, you get the command prompt, you can disable UAC (User Account Control) to stop the password dialog window.
However, as a work around you can right-click on the installation of the program files and select run as administrator. Check if this is useful.
Let me know if I can help you with this question or any problem related to Windows.

How to make an app available by HTTP?
A beginner question: I finished my MIDlet to Blackberry le Portage, everything works fine in the emulator. I don't have the equipment to do the final testing, a friend. I would like to make the app available through the net (HTTP maybe?) so that it can download and test.
With J2ME, I just put my JAD and JAR file in the same directory in my HTTP server and give him a link to the JAD, but I don't know how to do with the Blackberry MIDlets.
I would give a link to the COD file? Or is it like J2ME, JAD & JAR? A Blackberry instala stuff in this way? Please enlighten me here
Place the jad file and all the files of the cod in the same directory on the server web and it give a link to the jad file. Cod files are referenced in the jad file.
You must also add a mimetype for the extension of the Cod.
