Cannot open word files outside word
Reinstalled Office 2003 on a recent Windows 7 upgrade. When clicking on a
word file, word opens and the following message appears "There was a problem sending the command to the program". The file does not open. Excell files open in Excell, Powerpoint files open in Powerpoint. If I open Word first, then I can open the file within word. Any ideas? |
