Is there any way to make the OS change the default application that opens a certain type of file for every file of that type, and not just one file at a time?

Yes. Click "Change All..." when you're selecting the application to open a specific file in the Get Info window.
Mac OS X 10.5.0, Mac Pro 2.66GHz/2 GB RAM/X1900 XT, 23" ACD
