I've got it working now. In troubleshooing it, I found that the ICA file
extension was associated with the WFICA32.EXE at c:\program
files\citrix\icaweb32. If I opened a DOS box and changed into c:\program
files\citrix\ica client and ran 

Wfica32 ICAFILENAME

  That worked. In my Add/Remove programs list, I found that I had the MPS
client AND an ICA Web client that was showing the icon for the old Citrix
client. I used the Change function on the MPS client and removed the Web
Client component, but it that didn't change the file association or remove
the ICA Web client from the Add/Remove list. That must have been an older
version of the web client which coexisted with the MPS 8.0 client.
  At any rate, I uninstalled the older ICA Web client, uninstalled the MPS
8.0 client, reinstalled the MPS 8.0 client, and it worked. The new file
association was to WFICA32.EXE at c:\program files\citrix\ica client.

Thanks for the input.
