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.

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

on the status....any other suggestions out there????

The program is associated correctly. I tried this again anyway...this time
with fingers crossed..still didn't correct the problem.

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.
