Default Excel is opening a new workbook when I try to open an exsisting fi

Hi
Office 2003 Pro (with latest updates). WinXP Pro SP2

When I try to double click on any Excel file to open it up, Excel will open
up and I can see the file name but it is a new workbook that is blank no
data. If I open Excel and browse to the file and open it that way it will
open up with all data there. I tried to uninstall Office 2003 Pro. And
then reinstall. Still the same problem. Can any one help me find the
solution.. I suspect that it is a reg. entry that is the porblem, but I don't
know where to start.
PS. There are no problems with any other app. in Office
Thanks. John
