Not that I know of. That is the way programs work on Mac.
If you want to keep track of them, I keep all my 2008 files in one
folder, and all my 2009 files in another, etc., so there is no
question about which program created which file. Since I have all
recent versions of Finale in my Dock, I can drag them to the correct
version of the program.

given the experience of users on this list, I'm sure someone has
the answer.
I finally started using Finale 2010. However, I still have a few
straggling
projects that I want to finish in 2008. Is there a way to get a
file to
ALWAYS open in Finale 2008 even though the default for all .mus
files is now
Finale 2010?
Here's what I've done so far: I changed the "Open With" option in
the Get
Info menu, (Highlight the file name in the Finder window, right click,
choose Get Info). But that only works when neither version of the
program is
open.
I want to double click "File_A.mus" and have Finale 2008 open up,
even if
Finale 2010 is already open and I'm working on another file. I know
I can
drag the file's icon over the Finale 2008 icon in the doc, but I'm
far too
busy to be bothered with that! Seriously, though, there will come a
time
when I need to open that file again in the future, and I'll have
forgotten
which version of Finale I used to create the file. Also, I'd like
to avoid
adding a "2008" to the filename since I have several orchestra
pieces with
extracted parts.
