Default Setting file association won't stick

Trying to associate Visio files (*.vss, *.vsd) to Visio 2003, but no go.
Visio is not on "open with" list - browse to Visio.exe and double-click or
"Open" does nothing. How can I get it on the list?

It seemed to happen after I had uninstalled Visio 2000 with which the *.vs*
files were associated.

Thanks

Paddy

If you haven't already done so, I would suggest running a repair on your
Visio 2003 installation. Go to Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel,
select Visio 2003 in the list and click the Change button. Choose the Repair
option on the next screen.

Ah! Thanks Tim. Didn't know that option was there.
