How to open and edit "*.txt" file with "Notepad"

Hello guys!
I'm facing problem with SharePoint 2010 Enterprise and got no clue how to solve it.
What I want to do is to open "*.txt" (which is placed to "Documents Library") in "Notepad", so I could edit it and save (publish) directly to SharePoint from "Notepad".
If I upload any Microsoft office File, such as "*.docx", "*.xls", etc - it works as it should - document opens in appropriate application and everybody is happy.
But, when I create documents library, put some "*.txt" file there and click on it - it opens in new browser's tab as text, so I cannot edit the file.
What I tried to do is to activate feature "Open Documents in Client Applications by Default" - not happy.
Edit "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\XML\DOCICON.XML" - I've modified "txt" entry as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<DocIcons>
    <ByProgID>
    </ByProgID>
    <ByExtension>
<Mapping Key="txt" Value="ictxt.gif" EditText="Notepad" OpenControl="SharePoint.OpenDocuments"/>
    </ByExtension>
    <Default>
        <Mapping Value="icgen.gif"/>
    </Default>
</DocIcons>
Still not happy.
So, how do I make this stuff work?

Found this link which has more information on this scenario:

How to open and edit CRP files?

Hi,
at my workplace I see the following folders:
C:\Program Files\Novell\ZENworks\Asset Management\bin\UsageLogs
In this folder I see secret files like: 20090115.CRP and 20090115-web.CRP
Each days ZenWorks create this 2 files.
How can I open and edit it? Which software have to install at home for check it? I'm interested in very much what contain this files...
Thanks,
Gery

Those files would be software usage metering files. There is no software to the best of my knowledge that opens those files. They are loaded automatically by the collection server into the database.

How to Open the FailedFilesLog.txt File (statement), and How to Increase the 100 File Limit (question)

It took us a while to figure this out, so I'm posting this in case it's helpful for someone out there. Plus, I have a question...
DPM gave the following error for one of our file servers:
Description: The replica of Volume D:\ on <servername> is inconsistent with the protected data source. Number of files skipped for synchronization due to errors has exceeded the maximum allowed limit of 100 files on this data
source (ID 32538 Details: Internal error code: 0x809909FE)
Recommended action: Review the failure errors for individual files from the log file
\\?\Volume{8492c150-f195-11de-a186-001cc4ef89a0}\B1E9D373-2C03-464E-A472-99BC93DB1E2A\FailedFilesLog.txt and take appropriate action. If some files fail consistently, you can exclude the folders containing these files by modifying the protection group or
moving the files to another location.
So, how do you actually open the FailedFilesLog.txt file shown in this DPM alert? What is this path referring to? Well, this is the mount point for the protected server's replica volume on the DPM server, which is mounted under \Program
Files\Microsoft DPM\DPM\Volumes\Replica\servername\File System. Here you'll see the mount points for all of the server's protected volumes. However, if you try to open one of these mounted volumes
in Windows Explorer, you'll get Access Denied, even if you have administrator rights. (If someone knows of a way around this, please let me know). As a workaround, you can access this mounted volume in an elevated
command prompt. Steps:
Open an Administrator Command Prompt
Type mountvol <AnyAvailableDriveLetter>: \\?\Volume{VolumeGUID}
Example: mountvol m: \\?\Volume{8492c150-f195-11de-a186-001cc4ef89a0} Note that we're only using the first part of the path to the FailedFilesLog.txt
file given in the DPM alert, starting from \\? and ending after the
} character.
Next, type m: to change to the newly mounted m: drive.
Then type cd B1E9D373-2C03-464E-A472-99BC93DB1E2A This is actually a folder name so we're just going into this folder.
Finally type dir and you should see the FailedFilesLog.txt file. This file can be copied to another location where it's easier to use (i.e. in Windows Explorer).
Be sure to unmount this volume when you're done by typing mountvol m: /d in the command prompt. (Mountvol reference:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc772586(WS.10).aspx.)
What a pain, eh? But at least by reviewing the FailedFilesLog.txt file you can determine which files or folders caused the sync to fail and thus take action accordingly.
Now, here's my question: Where is that registry key that lets me adjust the limit of 100 files that DPM allows to be skipped before it fails the replica? Hopefully someone out there will tell me. I know this can be done because Kapil Malhotra
said so in this post:
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.dataprotectionmanager/browse_thread/thread/a179fa30fb50c9b0/e9a348f2a9386063?lnk=raot.
Also, does anyone know what the internal error code 0x809909FE means in this alert? Knowing this my help us determine what caused these files to fail. Interestingly, in the FailedFilesLog.txt file, it gave a different error code next to each failed file:
0x80070002.
-Taylorbox

Thanks for responding, Fahd. So, just to be sure...
Do I add this registry key to the DPM server or to the protected servers (or both)?
In either case, the ContinueOnFailure key does not currently exist. So, I must create this key and the MaxFailedFiles DWORD value
manually, right?
Does the server in which I create this regkey have to be restarted for it to take affect?
Can the DPM alert for the 0x809909FE error event (for exceeding the limit of 100 failures) please be adjusted to provide a path to the FailedFilesLog.txt file
that actually works if you click on it?
Any ideas on why the 0x80070002 "File not found" error happened? The files on the server were simply created and then deleted. Why would such file activity lead to this error?
Thanks,
-Taylorbox

How to open and read binary files?

How do I open and read Binary files?

Did you look on The Unarchiver's web site where it has a link to older versions? http://theunarchiver.googlecode.com/files/TheUnarchiver3.2_legacy.zip
The best thing to do is ask your friends what programs they used to produce these files, or at least what format files they are producing. Otherwise it's like being shown a car and given a bundle of 200 keys with no idea to which one to use, or even if any of them work with that car.
Using The Unarchiver will likely not do anything because it too will not know what format files are involved, and they may not even been in an archived format. If they sent you a Word file without telling you (a favorite of Windows users to do -- it drives me crazy when they could have just sent them in plain text), The Unarchiver won't open them. If it's a picture file then using Hexedit will just show you a bunch of unintelligible stuff as shown in an earlier post, though you may see a line of text providing a hint.
As I said earlier, often .bin may be an executable program which needs another program to actually interpret it. That's what Java is trying to do. Still, it may think it can execute the file, but it is highly unlikely somebody would send you an executable program (and if they did I would not trust it). For all you know it may be a Windows virus.

How to open a configuration file with a relative path?

I want to open a configuration file during the initialization of my application (first "state," u can say) and I am using "Open Config file.vi" and tried to pass the config file's path as "data\myconfig.ini" and the "File exists?" vi didn't give any error (simply, the output was "false") but the Open config File gave an error.
If I pass an absolute path "D:\xyz\xyz\myconfig.ini" it works fine. Isn't it allowed to use "relative path" as I remember using it before for other tasks?
I actually prefer to have this file in the "data" folder that my application's setup will create in the destination directory while installing the application, because it will be easy when I want to ask the user to open and edit it. Or, I would just put it in "C:\" which exists on all the windows computers, but then it would be too much open.
Thanks ahead!

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Relative paths have sometimes a meaning for command line tools (where a relative path gets appended to the current path, which usually is the executables directory).
But for Windows GUI applications that makes not much sense. Windows also maintains a per process current path, but that path gets updated by several Windows APIs, one of them being the File Dialog. So whatever your user has last selected in any file dialog inside your application will from then on be the applciations current path. It should be clear that with such a braindamaged current path implementation it has basically no useful meaning, and LabVIEW consequently does not do path expansion, where relative paths are expanded by prepending them with the applications current path.
Also LabVIEW uses mostly the Windows 32 Bit API, which does provide the current path implementation but does almost not use it in any of its file operations. The use of that feature is mostly reserved for the Windows shell API, which is a higher level API that can as best be described as a collection of various APIs that have been thrown together by whatever some MS developer felt at the moment. You can not by any means call it a designed API at all, and LabVIEW makes almost no use of it, as it needs lower level access, to make its operation similar in its working across all the platforms, LabVIEW can run on.
So while you can work with relative paths inside your application (and actually should as much as possible to make your application not depend on a particular location) you should make that path absolute whenever you pass it to a function that actually accesses a file somewhere.

Any way to open and edit .MOD files on iMac?

I am brand new to iMac, after wasting too many years on Windows. I have a Hard Disk camcorder that I uploaded from to my old PC. The movies are in the .MOD extension. I cannot seem to find a program to open and edit them on my new Mac. I used PowerDirector on my old PC, but that program doesn't seem to have a Mac version. Will iMovie be able to handle these files? I have quite a few home movies in this format, and I don't want to lose them! Thanks for your help!

You can use a program called MPEG Streamclip to convert your MOD files to MP4s, which can be imported by iMovie. Also, you can change the mod file extensions to mpg which allows you to view the files with Quicktime (although, at least in my experience, they still need to be converted with MPEG Streamclip to be recognized by iMovie 08).

Opening and Editing SWF files

Does anyone know if there is a way to open and edit a SWF file.

No, you have to have the fla file to edit. You can purchase/use a decompiler to convert the swf into an fla file, but I have no experience or recommendations to offer regarding that... only hear-say--towards the negative side

How to open and edit a VBscript file?

Hi,
I'm fairly proficient with Dreamweaver CS3. However, i'm finding one aspect of CS4 to be baffling to the extreme.
I work with VBScript files. When I open up a script file that includes other script files, the name of the parent file is seen on a tab (with an x to the right of it). Below it are tabs for all of the files that are included (via an include statement in the code). That's nice.
When I click on one of the included files I see that file show up in my window. However, I am unable at this point to get back to the file that included this one; i.e., the master file that is still above the other files.
If I click on the tab for the master file, I don't see the contents of this file. If I click on the small white paper icon (with the top right corner folded) on the left navigation bar, I see the name of the master file. Selecting it still doesn't fill my editor window with the master file.
There is a little symbol on the right side of the tabs for the included files. (It looks like >>, except the arrows face down.) This has the list of all of the files that I have open, minus the master file.
It is very hard to believe that Dreamweaver would make CS4 this hard to use. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to get the master file back in the editor window after I have clicked on one of the files it includes. Can anyone point me in the right direction? thanks.

How to open and read many files from a directory and store contents in 2D array?

I want to make a VI that opens and reads the data from various files contained in a directory (200 files each with 2 columns) and store these in a single 2D array. For file number 1 I want to store the data from both columns in the 2D array, but for files 2 to 200 I only want to store the second column of each file. Can someone please help?

Hi Nadav,
Thanks for your help. I have followed your instructions but i cannot get it to work. I used the LIST DIRECTORY to list the files in the directory - that works. However, how do I read each of the 200 files using READ FROM SPREADSHEET FILE without me having to manually select each of the 200 files? So, if I use LIST DIRECTORY to list all 200 files in an array, how do I get each of these to open and store the data in a 2D array? Here is what I have done (File called read_files.VI) Could you please help me? Thank you very much in advance.

Opening and editing .MOD files

Just purchased a JVC Everio Hard Diek camcorder. The editing software which comes with the camera (Capty MPEG Edit EX for Everio) is unfortunately only compatable with OSX 10.3, but I have OSX 10.4.7. I can't open or edit any of the images of my son's birth. The files which are generated by the camera are .MOD files. Is there any way of converting these files to something which I can edit in iMovie (I have version 3.0.3 of iMovie)? Any ideas???

Hello
That sounds great - just a couple of questions... I tried Sue's excellent advice yesterday and purchased Mpeg-2 Playback Component from Apple, as this seemed the most economic solution. I have Quicktime 7, but I've not upgraded to Pro yet. Unfortunately the Mpeg-2 Playback Component which Apple sent seems to only work in Classic mode with Quicktime 6. Even after I'd installed Mpeg-2 Playback Component, when I tried to use MPEG Streamclip I still got a message saying that I need Mpeg-2 Playback Component - I assume it's not recognising I already have it because it's a Classic application.
Will Mpeg-2 Playback Component work if I have Quicktime Pro, even if it's Quicktime Pro 7?
Sorry I can't help with your question - I'm as much in the dark as you!
