Depends on your system.  Right click on the icon and see if you have the option to "Open With". If not try opening another program and THEN try opening the file from there.  

Also try changing the file association.  Open Windows Explorer window.  Tools, Folder Options, tab = File Type. Find the extension of that file, click on it and then click the change button.  Find the appropriate app to open the file and select it.  Next time you try to open a file and you're prompted to pick an app to open the file make sure the box in the lower left is not checked. 

Hope that helps.
