Summary: Vendors haven't done that yet...


Multiscribe and other progrograms won't run when their data files are double-
clicked because Apple released the finder too late for the vendors to include
feature.  Apple is also trying to standardize the filetype numbers so that
each program has a different number.  This prevents, say, WordPerfect runing
when you double click on a Multiscribe document.  There is an icon editor 
available now too, so that applications and data files can have custom icons.
