Hi Mike~
No apology needed. Your suggestion worked beautifully - an old greeting
card program - long since deleted - "took ownership" of about 30 file
extensions, including .tlx and .clx files in the Legacy dictionary. I
switched the associations to Notepad and all is well.
Thanks for the input.

My apologies. I see that the tlx files are in fact plain text and
therefore can be edited with Notepad. On a Vista system, with no
application associated with the TLX extension, double-clicking one of them
results in a query as to whether Vista should pick a program from the
local system or use a Web service. The local computer is, of course, the
way to get Notepad associated with all TLX files.
I would postulate that sometime in the past you either went the Web
service route, or had installed some greetings card software. To be able
to open TLX files with notepad, you now need to use the Default Programs
to a) remove whatever it is that 'owns' TLX files, and b) make Notepad the
new owner.
