On my PC, when in Windows Explorer, the icons that identiy Word documents
look exactly like the icons that identify folders. So far, MS Support has
not been able to give me a solution to this. In the old office, Word
documents popped us as little "W's".

Any help would be appreciated.

You should be able to change any display icon via its file association from
Windows Explorer tools folder options file types advanced chgange
icon.

Graham,
Thank you for the prompt response - I'm off to that location now to effect
those changes.

Graham's suggestion took care of word - next step is Outlook messages saved
to the hard drive from outlook. They also appear as a folder - when opening
the folder, there are three files: a Dreamweaver file (that's my default web
editor) entiteld colorschemamapping, a DW file - filelist, and a MS Office
Themefile that says temedata.
