In Windows Explorer, right click on a .doc file name and choose Open with
and select Word.

You need to associate ".doc" with Word. You can do this either through
Windows Explorer: go to Tools > Folder Options > FileTypes; or Start > Run
and enter: winword.exe /r

All my Documents saved in word have automatically changed to word notepad. I
did what Chuck suggsted but when I choose 'open with' the only option is
'wordpad', word is not there. What do I do?
