Hello Robert,

You’re welcome!

You can force all such .bz2 archive to be opened by the Archive Utility this 
way:
        - select the file
        - Cmd-I and the file’s info dialog show up
        - under «  Open with » , chose Archive Utility in the popup menu
        - click on « Modify all » or whatever it’s name in your language
