Mid's data link question

I have been unable to use Mid's data links on my home computer because the file extension (.mxd) hasn't been associated with the Mid's program.

It *used* to be when that happened, you'd get a handy-dandy dialog box that would allow you to browse and find the program that goes with the extension. Now, in Microsoft's infinite wisdom, they send you to some website that gives you a lot of blather about what file extensions are and how to search the web for a program that might open the file, but no actual, useful info like how you associate a extension with a program if you know the right one.

So...can anyone clue me in on where/how I associate programs with file extensions on XP SP3? I always used the handy-dandy dialog box before, so I never learned where the frell MS has hidden it.

Thanks!

Right click the file and select properties.

Click the Change button next to where it says "Opens with"

In your Windows browser, navigate to a file with the .mxd extension and right-click then chose properties > General Tab > Open With > Click on "Change" Button > choose Mids (if Mids isn't listed, click Browse button and navigate to Programs\Mids Hero Designer\Hero Designer.exe).
