Lisa, I just tried it on my Mac and it works as advertised. The only thing I can think of is that you are trying the "Open with" from a right click on the file name, rather than opening the Get Info window first. It is true that, when you click Open with and select an alternate application you can only select "Always open with" for that document. However, in Get Info, you will also see a button labeled "Change All..." which will change file associations for all files of that type.
