Hello- Just recently I've been forced by a precipitating crisis to move to XP (home edition) from Windows '98. All the documents from the previous system are on my drive, all of which were created on wordpad. When I try now, with wordpad on XP to open any of them, I get a message saying "cannot load Word for Windows 6.0 files". Wordpad is supposedly the default program specified to load *.doc files, yet I get this message. The only info I've been able to find at microsoft in regard to this error message has to do with encountering this problem in conjunction with a Quicken program, but all I am trying to do is use wordpad to access wordpad documents- seems like it shouldn't be too much to ask.
Any suggestions? Thanks. -J
