Description gast00n 2008-06-17 15:12:44 UTC 
On windows XP, I want to assign scalc.exe as the default application to open
xslx files, as I just did for .docx & .pptx files, with swriter.exe & simpress.exe.

When I right click a xlsx file, 'open with' and browse to my program files to
'scalc.exe' and confirm, the scals doesn't add to the application list, as if
windows didn't recognize it as en executable. All others OO apps (sbase, sdraw,
simpress, smath & swriter) can be added to the apps list, but not scalc.

I can't reproduce this bug in dev300_m20 and dev300_m21.

gast00n, please check the latest build: does this issue still exist?

Problems are routinely fixed by later builds, so it is always worth checking, when a new build comes out, 
and then adding info to the issue.

Evidently this problem has been fixed in a later build. This issue has been marked FIXED.
