When I try to open up a file with the extension .doc, I get the following
message:
This file does not have an program associated with it for performing this
action. Create an association in the Folder Options control panel.

Any one have any ideas on how to do this???? I am lost!

Do you have Word on your computer?

You can find how to post in this newsgroup but you can't Google to find how
to create a file association?

Works and Word are two different products. And I'm pretty certain that you
can't open a Word .doc in Works. (I've never *not* had Word so I can't be
positive.)
