PDF Files
Recently something changed on my computer and now when I try to open MS Word
files the computer autmatically tries to change it into a PDF file via Adobe Acrobat. It may have been an update I made? I do not want to open all Word files as PDF and wonder if anyone can help me. It is now doing this for Word file I create unless say "open with MS Word" and all email attachments automatically try to open PDF Please help if you can |

In the Start | Run dialog box, type
winword /r and press Enter. That should restore the correct file associations for Word documents. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Tina Immormino" Tina wrote in message ...

Also, if you right click on any word document (before opening it), Click on
Open With, Choose Program. A dialog box appears. Here you can select which program will open the file. Choose Word, and then... there is a check box "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file", make sure it is checked before you click OK. |

Yes, that should work too, and sometimes it's a necessary step (when winword
/r simply doesn't work). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Suzie" wrote in message ... Also, if you right click on any word document (before opening it), Click on Open With, Choose Program.
