Hi,
I have an application , it does not register itself to windows file manager
( I mean , if I double click on a document of my application type, it does
not open)
How can I make it register itself,

Thanks,

CWinApp::RegisterShellFileTypes() is the answer. You would also need to call
EnableShellOpen before calling RegisterShellFileTypes().

Check MSDN for more details:

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925

Did you define your document string (IDR_MAINFRAME)?
