No, sorry, you can't do this.

I say it is a bug: Office 2008 silently declares itself to be the default
application for all of the file types any time one of the O2008 applications
runs.

We have asked Microsoft if there is a work-around, but I suspect we may be
told "This is by design" :-)

Cheers
