broken icon for Word 2003 icon
Hi dan,
Documents created in Word 2003 that are saved on my computer, or appear as an attachment in email, do not show as a Word icon. I have Windows Vista installed, with all the updates. Office 2007 is also installed. Mmmm. Sounds as if the *.doc file format may have been unlinked from Word. If you double-click such a document in Windows Explorer does it open in Word with no problems? If you right-click such a file, choose Properties, in the General tab you can "Change" the application with which it is associated. If you're not seeing the icon here, try using this to associate it with Word and see if that helps.

Thank you, Cindy. That was the solution. I needed to change the assigned
application that opens .doc files. For some reason, the .DOC format was assigned to the Wordpad application. Problem fixed. **Dan "Cindy M." wrote: Hi dan, Documents created in Word 2003 that are saved on my computer, or appear as an attachment in email, do not show as a Word icon.
