Hi,

The command was cmd-i, as in Get Info, not cmd-a as in Select All.  
Alternatively, if you just wish to open a document once in an alternative app, 
press cmd-shift-m to bring up the Contextual menu, then select Open With and 
choose the desired app from the available choices.

Later...

Devin,
Not sure I’m getting started on the right track. In Finder, I’m positioned on a 
file.xlsx and when I press Command+A all it does is to select all the files in 
that folder. Can you point out where I’m getting off the track?
