Windows XP File Association - Application Server

We run a network with 600+ PC's, a number of our users requre MS Visio, it's too expensive to purchase licenses for each PC so we setup an application server hosting the app.  Does anyone know if there is a way to associate .vsd (Visio files) with the application server.  What we want to achieve is when a user double clicks a viso file the Remote Desktop Connection will open, pick up the NT user authenication, log them into the app server and open the app. ;)  Simple!

All help much appreciated

Cheers

Dave

So what your saying is run the app on the local PC using the .exe and associated .dll's from the server thus not actually needing to start a Terminal Service session like we are doing now?
