How to get VE to work? [message #46329]

I have the release eclipse 3.0 installed on Windows XP.
I downloaded the latest integration build of VE and unzipped it in c:\ so the
files go into c:\eclipse.

But, if I right-click on a file and do open with... the visual editor choice
does not appear. Is there some other way to install this?

Thanks,
Jim
