Installing MS Office after installing OpenOffice
When installing MS Office after a previous installation of OpenOffice, all
..doc files are shown as soffice6.doc file type and the icons are not converted to MSWord. There appears no way to re-convert these files to MSWord and manual intervention is required to allow MSWord to open these files (default is WordPad). Help/Detect and Repair does not resolve this issue. OS is XP Home. ---------------- This post is a suggestion for Microsoft, and Microsoft responds to the suggestions with the most votes.
