Customizing file associations
You can associate a number of different file types with Corel applications. When you double-click a file you have associated with an application, the application starts and the file opens. When you no longer need a file type association, you can break it.

(Windows Vista) Associating a file type with an application adds it to the list of recommended programs for opening this file type. To open a file of an associated file type in Corel PHOTO-PAINT while browsing in Windows Vista, you also need to make Corel PHOTO-PAINT the default program. To do this, click the Start button on the Windows Vista taskbar, and then click Default Programs. Next, click Associate a file type or protocol with a program. For detailed instructions about how to change the default program for a file type, see the Windows Vista Help.
