Right-clicking on desktop icon for html file gives me Open menu where clicking Open calls my web browser, but clicking Edit gives me error message that there is no program associated with that function.  Under Windows XP I could use the Edit option to open my html edit program, but I can't find out how to add that association under Windows 7 for the Edit option.

The "File Types" tab which was present in Windows XP, is discontinued in Windows Vista and Windows 7. To change the "edit" verb setting, you may have to use a third-party tool or edit the registry manually. This is the key where you set the command for "Edit" verb in the registry.

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\htmlfile\shell\Edit\command

Default Programs Editor - A Useful File Association Editor for Windows 7 and Vista - The Winhelponline Blog

Which editor do you use? Some editors have a built-in option to set/reset itself as the default editor for HTML files.

Default Programs Editor is a very useful tool which helps you to edit file type associations, add or remove AutoPlay handlers and static context menu entries. In Windows Vista and Windows 7, there is no option provided to add or edit context menu entries and static verbs (as in Windows XP’s "File Types" dialog.) Here is where the Default Programs Editor comes in handy.
