word 2007, cannot double click on DOC file to open it
I've uninstalled Office 2002 and installed Offics 2007. For Word 2007, when
I double click on a file with the extension .DOC, a window opens with the following message: The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or ... Inset the "Microsoft Office XP Professional with FrontPage' disk and click OK. I have Vista Home Premium on my computer. Can anyone explain what is causing this hiccup and how to correct it? Thanks, Ian |

Hi Ian,
Check in the Programs listing in the control panel to see if there are other Office XP/2002 apps listed. If you upgraded Office 2007 over Office XP/2002 it would only remove apps it had replacements for, not the entire product as part of upgrading. ======== "Ian" wrote in message ...

Hello Bob, You are right. But I had to uninstall both Office 2002 and 2007 and then reinstall 2007. But it is working properly now. Thanks for the help. |

Hello Bob,
A qualifcation. I had previously uninstalled Office 2002 but did not think to remove several Office XP components. These are what I removed today. Thanks, Ian |
