I have followed the explanation in the help of Microsoft xp
home edition to associate a file.
When I choose the program that I wish to assciate with the
file as described here:

"Windows displays a dialog box that displays programs that
are installed on the computer. If the program that you want
to use for this file type is not listed, click Browse to
locate the appropriate software. Select the Always use the
selected program to open this kind of file check box."
 The "Always use the selected program to open this kind of
file check box." remains grayed out,can not check this box.

Am i doing something wrong? Thanks
