Pete,

You can associate different actions for any given file type.  For 
example, in Windows XP, you would do the following:

Open an Explorer Window and select Tools/Folder Options/File Types, find 
and select your EXW extension and click the Advanced button.  I 
typically add an "Edit" action and associate it with my favorite editor. 
 I set my "Open" action as the default so that double-clicking will run 
the program but if I right click the file I can select "Edit" to have it 
come up in my file editor.

The procedure for doing this in Win9x is slightly different and I don't 
have a 9x system handy to outline the steps involved but it can be 
done...

If you have a 9x system and can't figure it out, let me know and I'll 
give you the procedure when I get home this evening.
