Word docs won't open
If I receive a word doc in an email attachment I am unable to open it. A
blank page is displayed. I can save the doc...or attempt to open any other already saved Word doc and it opens blank as well. The ONLY way I can view the word docs now is to open the word application first...then use the menu option to open and browse to a doc that has been saved. I've re-installed the office suite and the problem continues. The Properties are set correctly...and when I do attempt to open the word attachment from email word opens however the document is never displayed as I said it's a blank page...so I know that the correct application is associated to open the documents. -- Kaz Vodicka Kineticsware |

Word docs won't open
I'm still searching for a solution...
I've recently tried removing the normal.dotm file which also had no effect on the status....any other suggestions out there????

When I attempt to open any word doc...either from an email attachment or from windows explorer, word opens...however the document i'm attempting to open never does. So I know the association to winword.exe is working. -- Kaz Vodicka Kineticsware "Graham Mayor" wrote: Select a document in Windows Explorer, right click and choose Open with... from the ensuing dialog select Word (winword.exe) and check the box to always open with this application -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Kazier wrote: thank you...the command ran successfully however it did not correct the problem.
