Can you still open Word documents by double-clicking them? Look in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE10 (if you have Office XP, or OFFICE11 if you have Office 2003) for the file WinWord.exe. If it's there but double-clicking a document doesn't start it, open the Start menu, click Run, and enter the command WinWord.exe /r to re-register Word. You may also need to right-click the WinWord.exe file and choose Send To Desktop (as Shortcut) to recreate the shortcut. If the file isn't there, you'll have to reinstall it from the Office CD. There's no other way to get it back. If you can't locate the CD, see http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=326246 to find out how to get a replacement. -- Regards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. |

It's pretty tough to do that by accident. Why do you think you did?

one way to check to see if you lost an icon -- or messed up the
application... go into Windows Explorer -- find one of your Word Doc's... and double click it. If MS Word is there intact, the document should open. If you get some type of error -- then one way or another you have either corrupted the application (or just 1 little file) or possibly uninstalled --but that is IMPOSSIBLE to do by accident.
