Absolutely Method #1 what you want to do is control click a Appleworks file then choose Open with and then just choose Appleworks.
Method #2 Put a Applework icon in your Dock and next time you want to open a file created with Appleworks just drop it over the Dock icon. Method #3 Single click the icon of any Appleworks document (to highlight) press the command key (apple key) and the letter "I" key ("I" as in information) a window inspector will appear, chose open with, then chose Appleworks and than click on change all.

On my Pismo I have both Appleworks 6 and Office v.X

Problem: I usually use Appleworks for the documents I create. (Old
habits die hard...)  When I click on a file (which sports an AppleWorks
icon) it opens up in Word.  The only way I am able to work around it is
to open the document up in Appleworks, but hey, I just want to click
and go.

Is there any way I can get Word to stop trying to be my default?

TIA,
Stan
