Right now sometime I get a message that says SimpleText cannot open a given document because the document is too large. What I have to do is to drag and drop the document on an alias of SimpleEdit. I would like documents, no matter what size, to open with SimpleEdit so that I don't have to drag and drop.

You might try getting rid of all the copies of SimpleText on your computer. I say copies because it's very likely that you have more than one.
Do a search using Sherlock by typing SimpleText. Move what you find to the Trash.
Now... if you do that, I believe you will be able to assign SimpleEdit as the default viewer.

So, if you make it a habit of puting the .txt after textedit files, than set the control panel to read all .txt files with TextEdit, i think it should launch automatic.
I also think you can "choose & select" files, than say what program to open for that one (like, shoose a simpeltext, than say to open with TextEdit).
It's been a while that i checked thouse things on Os9 but i can check at work tomorrow.
Hope some of this is true though, hehehe
