Hi Jim,
Sorry, thought your last post was referring to opening a doc within Teams. You are right. The sharing issue with Guests has not been resolved.

Ah, yes. In New Teams open Settings > Files and Links.
Under File open preference click the dropdown arrow and choose 'Teams', 'Desktop app', or 'Browser'
This settings preference may change if MS pushes a big update to New Teams.

For sharing with everyone in your Org ----- Teams ain't gonna do it. You could create a SharePoint site open to everyone in your Org (Public - Teams SP sites are Private to owners and members of the Team). Post files that are meant for everyone in your Org in that Public SP site.
Work around? Yes.
