.cdr file type missing from Open and Import window

I have Corel X5.  If I double click a .cdr file from the windows file browser (not from within Corel Draw) it opens the file in CorelDRAW.

But if I launch CorelDRAW and try to open the file I can not select the file because the list of file extensions in the Open dialog does not include .CDR so I can't even see the file because I can't select the .cdr extension.

    Click the Start menu. ...
    Type "folder options" (without the quotes). ...
    A dialog box with the title "Folder Options" will appear. ...
    Under the viwew tab click to uncheck the box for "Hide extensions for known file types".
    Click the "OK" button at the bottom of the dialog box.
