Right click a document file in a Windows Explorer window. Select 'open
with'. Pick Word from the list and check the always open with this
application check box. If this doesn't fix it, you will have to edit the DOC
file association directly from Windows Explorer - Tools - File Types.

Thank you for the suggestion Graham, that didn't work for me.
I ran the command then attempted to launch a word doc by double
clicking on a .doc file and nothing happens. No errors nothing.

Hi I'm having a problem with one user trying to open a .doc file
using Word 2000. When the user attempts to open the file by double
clicking it nothing happens.
Our temporary work around is to open Word first then choose
fileopen and selecting the file opens the doc file.
I can't figure out how to fix this users problem.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Tri
