Vista's decided to prevent me from changing associations for any type of
file, under any circumstances. I executed an ODS file expecting Open
Office to load. Instead Adobe Reader came up, and informed me that it
couldn't load the file because it was in an unsupported format. What a
surprise! I've always used Adobe to handle speadsheets!
I went to Control Panel/Default Programs section, then into the
"association" area. Lo & behold, I can't change anything. Everything's
greyed out.
I tried Ramesh Srinivasan's "unassociate" program. The extension in
question was removed from the list of associated files, but when I try to
"open with" or re-enter the association area within Control Panel I still
have no options, and if I double-click an ODS file, I still get Adobe.
I hadn't changed anything on the system since I last loaded an ODS. No new
programs, nada.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
