Why can't I associate DOC files with Word 2007?
I'm trying to set Word 2007 as the default program to open DOC files, but it
won't let me. I don't want to have to go through and convert all my DOC files to DOCX, and I know that using Word 2007 for DOC files means that I have to use compatibility mode, but I'm content with that. I have tried right-clicking a DOC document, and using "Open with...", but even after I browse manually to winword.exe, it still won't show the option to open in Word 2007 in the dialogue. I also tried going through Start - Default Programs and selecting DOC files, but I got the same result; the "Open with..." dialogue will not recognize Word 2007 as a viable program to open DOC files. I'm using Vista Home Premium |
