Question : Can't open AutoCAD files

Recently I converted a business from an XP file server to an SBS server.  I used the users' local profiles and converted them to domain accounts.

One user reports that now, when he clicks on his .dwg files, they do not open AutoCad any longer.  They ask what application he wants to use, and when he tries to browse to AutoCad, it won't open. The file.

However, if he opens AutoCad, he can open the file from there.  How can I get it to reassociate the file types with AutoCad???
