Default Make Word the default word processor after installing Open Office

I installed open office and it made itself the default. I tried to change
back to Word and I keep getting error messages like 'The document name or
path is not valid' when I click on a DOC file. I know I need a /o or a -o in
the file options, editing for application type.
Thanks in advance

Start Run

winword.exe /r

Note that there is a space before the slash.
