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 CorelDRAW while browsing in Windows Vista, you also need to make CorelDRAW 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.
