Why do I have to click 'Open' to open an application or document,  when previously in Tiger, all I had to do was click on the line or image in Flow?

I've only had OSX 10.8.2 this last month, but I've found that whenever I want to open a document, I have to click 'Open' in 'Perform tasks with the selected item' function (The gearwheel with dropdown arrow). When I had Tiger, all I had to do was click on the document and it would open. Am I missing something
that would make my experience with Mountain Lion simpler?

Hi sig, I was only referring to flow because that is just an alternative use to clicking on the line that the document shows on in either line view, but since asking the question, I have discovered that what I was missing was to double click on the line and the document opened.
