Default Double Click does not open document

I know this won't help you Steven - but I have passed on my laptop to my wife
and set her up as a new user - so all her documents are now stored in her new
folders. When she double clicks a document name (Word 2007 in this case)
Word starts up but the document cannot be found. It can only be opened
either from the "most recently used" list or by going "File...Open" - a very
similar problem and one that I feel sure has a simple solution. Anyone out
there had this before and solved it? Please help!

Hi,

I am using Word 2003. Until recently, I could open a word document directly
from my desktop by double clicking on it. Now, however, when double
clicking, the program opens but not the document. I need to either double
click the document icon again or go FileOpen etc.

I found something on the web to try (winword /r) but this hasn't solved the
problem. Just wondered if anyone else has had this and how it can be
resolved.

Thanks
