Our computer came originally installed with Works. When we loaded Microsoft
Office (Home and Student Version) 2007, it seemed to load fine and is able to
be used for word processing, excel spreadsheets, etc. But when we try to
open documents sent via the web, it automatically defaults to Works. In
Vista, tried to change the default, and the Microsoft Office suite is not
listed on the choices for default programs. Help!
 
Right-click on a file you've saved to your hard drive (you wouldn't
try opening an attachment directly from email, would you?), choose
"Open With," select Word or WinWord (however it appears), and check
the box asking whether it should use that program to open all files of
this type.
