When I open up my 2007 files .pptx by double-clicking on it, it opens as a 
..ppt (Read Only) (Compatibility Mode). I then have to do a "save as" 2007 
file.

However, when I open it by doing file-open - it opens as a 2007 file.

Does anyone know why yhis happens and if there is a preference I can set to 
have them open as 2007 files when I double-click on it?

Thanks in advance!

One solution would be right clicking the file and selecting properties and 
going to the " General" tab and changing the program it uses to open as a 
default(i am not aware but it may say Word 2003 Compatibility Mode- Change it 
to Word 2007).
