Office documents not opening!

[fashionroadkill]

My boss came to me with a computer problem. When he clicks on an icon for a
document on his desktop, it opens up the program, but not the document. From
there he has to go to File - Open - and then locate the document and open it
that way.

It will open, but he wants it to open the first time he clicks on it. Any
solutions?

He's running Office 2003. It does it with both Word & Excel.

You might want to ask in a Windows newsgroup (for your version of Windows,
which you did not specify) rather than this group, which is for Microsoft
Access database design.

I did, I'm sorry. After I hit "post" I realized that even thought I clicked
on "General Office" I was in the "Access" section.

Sorry!
