Click to expand...

First, the obvious: Is Word installed on your system? Don't laugh, first
things first.
Second, open My computer, tools, folder options, file types, then look
for the doc extension. There Change "Open with" to show Word. If it
already shows Word, click advanced, Open, edit, and carefully edit the
command to reflect the path of your winword.exe file.
