DESCRIPTION
This article demonstrates how to associate files with the extension .SQL to ApexSQL Edit.

SOLUTION
Every program that's installed on your computer is designed to open one or more particular file types, each of which is identified by a file name extension. If you have more than one program on your computer capable of opening a file type, then one program is set as the default.

How to set ApexSQL Edit opens .SQL type of files by default?

1. Right-click .SQL file and click Choose Program from the context menu.

Find ApexSQL Edit using the Browse button....

Select it and click OK.

From the Open With dialog select Always use the selected program to open this kind of file check box, and then click OK.

At the end ApexSQL Diff will be your default .SQL files editor.

If you may want to associate other file types with ApexSQL Edit such as .PRC, .XML, .XSD just follow the same procedure as shown above.
