[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explo
rer]
"NoFileAssociate"=dword:00000000

Changing this key from its default value of 00000001 enables the File
Types dialog box to function just as it does for other Windows 2000
configurations.

Craig,

that's because the TS is in the normal Terminal
Services mode - the associate program option is only
available if the TS is running in Remote
Administration mode (reboot to Remote Admin, Assoc the
file, Reboot to TS!) which is a pain in the but.

There is a reg hack you can do in TS mode that enables
this option so a reboot into Remote Admin is not
needed, however, I cannot lay my hands on it right
now.  I would suggest you search the Thin archives as
I'm sure it's been asked here before.
