When I used Fusion, I had the ability to double-click on a file in the Finder or wherever and have it open an application in my Windows guest. Is such a thing possible with VirtualBox? (I confess that I don't know how it happened with Fusion - I don't recall doing anything to make it happen. The file in question is a Quicken file, but that shouldn't matter).
Thanks.

Re: Double-click on Mac to open app in VirtualBox?
There probably is a way to do it, but I see nothing about this convenience in the Users Manual. Someone with more VBox experience should comment.
It may be you can write some sort of script to handle this, but I'd think it quite a complex project. I seem to remember the old Fusion of a few years ago did it in a similar way.
