[vb .net] program name in XP 'open with..' dialog?


Question

Ok, me again, with a fun question. A program I'm working on allows for a filename to be put into the command line argument so I go through windows, to test it, and choose to open a text file using the "open with" menu and manually selecting the exe. Everything works fine except one thing, my program now appears in the open with menu and dialog but it's only the icon, there is no program name text. What, in the program itself, do I have to do to allow the name of the program to appear there?

<Assembly: AssemblyTrademark("Bang Productions")>

That's what I have, yet it shows up blank still.

edit: hmm I removed it from the open with list and now it won't open with at all. I click the exe and it just brings me back to the list and highlights notepad

edit: was a registry problem. All fixed. Thanks.
