File Extentions and ProgID (think luaCOM)

[Intrigued]

Interesting... I was checking a file extention from another post. I know .doc is for M.S. Word. However, a side benefit from checking the extention's name through the following Website, you also get the ProgID (Programmic ID), which is what is needed for working with the luaCOM Plugin (ie. CreateObject). Check it out, it's towards the end of the listing. And, there may be several that relate to the different versions even!
