Opening a file (hst), executes the main jar file to open the hst file HELP

807598May 6 2006 — edited May 7 2006
Greetings,
I have created a file with an extension *.hst, so in my Win XP computer, when I double click a .hst file, it should be opened in my program, which is a jar file, so during the installation I associate my program to this .hst file extension.
After all this, when I double click this .hst file, it shows an error message that the jar file is not a vaid win32 application. I donot wish to convert my file to an .exe. Help ?

Cheers,
Raj
