File association

[Guest]

Hey,

I have installed Wordviewer on my terminal server. It was
for people who had not purchased a license for office.
Originally, I had Word as the default to open documents
and if they did not have permissions to the office program
then they could right click and open with Word viewer.

The problem I am having now is that word is opening with
Word viewer as the default. I am not sure what changed
this. I try to go to file types to tell word documents to
open with MS Word but the option to change this is grayed
out. I have checked my other servers that are not terminal
servers and they all allow me to make the change. It is
only on my two terminal servers, which are W2K.

Any ideas why this would prevent me from making the
change. I am local admin of the machine.

Thanks. I will try this.

By default on 2000 TS in Application Server Mode you

can't permanently change the file association by right-
click -> Open With, as you've noted it's greyed out.
