I have a medical billing application that allows a user to launch a word
processor from within the program. To set this up in the programs setup
utilities, I must specify the startup program to launch. In older versions of
Word, I could specify WinWord.EXE or similar. If a long path was needed I
could launch a BAT file that contained the path and the EXE program. I don't
know how to accomplish this for Word 2003. Can any one help? Thank you.

It's exactly the same as for previous versions, the only difference
being the version number (11 instead of 10, 9, etc.). If you accepted
the defaults during installation, the path is
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\winword.exe

If that doesn't work, use the Search function in Windows Explorer to
find winword.exe -- there should be only one on the disk.
