Visual Studio 2005 - XML Editor Problem


Question

Hey. I have an xml file that I find myself constantly tweaking. The only problem is that it's stored in utf-16, because, well, that's what the framework defaulted to when it serialzed it. I have no issues with the encoding, except for the fact that it's a small pain for Visual Studio to open it, when I do it so often to so many.

Basically, if I just open the file, I get a bunch of asian characters. If I right click the file and choose to open it with the XML Editor (With Encoding) and pick 'auto-detect' for the encoding, it works. I mapped the XML file format to the XML Editor (With Encoding), but I still get the annoying 'pick your encoding' window. Any way to get rid of it?

Small annoyance really, I can live with it...but I'd rather not.
