Default folder action is not "open"

[Jim]

When I doubleclick on a normal data folder, winXP doesn't open
normally. Instead, it starts up the search assistant.
I've been trying to correct the settings in "Tools - Folder
Alternatives - File Types - Advanced" (I don't know if it's exactly
called like that in English OS, but I think you know what I mean) but
the fields for editing & deleting are greyed out, so I don't know what
to do.
I've tried to mark the "open" command, and set it to "standard", but
no success.
One instance in the "filetype list" is called "file folder", that's
where "find" and some other command reside.
Another instance futher down is called just "folder", and that's where
"open" and "explore" is.
