How can I get OSX apps to open my old files on default?

If I have a bunch of graphics, movies, and text files from 8.6, how can I get it so that when i double click on, say, a jpg, it will open in previewer, and not try to open classic? These files are in my OSX partition, and i don't want them to have any connection with 8.6 anymore (i don't have 9).

Thanks,

Ryan
 
Hi

To set the default app for a file select the file then use show inspector from the file menu (apple-i). This will open something similar to the old get info box in classic. From the show menu select application then click change application and brows to the app you would like to use instead for that file type. Now it should work, no promises though! :)
