How to install an external editor in version 2.1.1.64 for viewing XMLType

Erwin SnippertSep 14 2010 — edited Sep 23 2010
I have a question about viewing XMLType in version 2.1.1.64

If you want to view the content of an XMLType column in a data-tab, you can double click on the particular XMLType field and the edit button appears at the end. Push this edit button and an "Edit Dialog" popup appears with the data presented as one line.
Push the External Editor button and you get a dialog that informs you about the not supported mime type of the selected object. You can find the complete list of supported mime types in Tools->Preferences->External Editor panel. I like to use an external XML editor for viewing an xmltype column, can anyone put me on the right track? Change the Editor Location for the .xml file extension didn`t work.

Kind regards,

Erwin Snippert
