Solved Unable to associate file type to upgraded version of a program

Voila!!!

I right clicked "default" and chose modify. I changed the 6 to a 7 and bingo, it showed up on the "open with" list immediately!

How 'bout that?

Thanks all and a Merry Christmas to you all!!!

If you could post back with the full path of the .exe file for the new version of the program, I'll be happy to create a REG file that you could use to change this registry entry automatically for you.
That's very kind of you but I found a way to do it just before reading this latest reply of yours... Have a wonderful Christmas!

That's great news. I'm happy to hear that you got it sorted. :)

I'm really surprised that it didn't get updated when you upgraded to the new version of the program.
