VS.Net MSI Filetype - RG_MULTI_SZ registry key

Hi :

In the MSI installer package for my .Net Project, I've created the
FilteType association between a file extension and
the project exe. I've seen in registry, that MSI installer is creating
two registry values one is default and other one with the name
"command" of type "RG_MULTI_SZ" . The default one has the path to the
exe but the "command" key has some junk. Upon doing some research, I
found that "command" is related to install repair in someway.
I am not sure about the effect of modifying or deleting the "command"
value.

I want to modify the file association without changing the MSI package
settings.For this , I am thinking of programmatically modifying the
file association through .Net.

Any ideas on how to do this without breaking the existing
installation ?

Thanks
Surya
