OL 2003 & Word attachment

[Tab]

I recently updated Windows XP Professional with SP2.
Everything appears to be working fine until today.

I received an e-mail in Outlook 2003 with a Word doc
attached. When I clicked on the attachment to open it and
okayed it opening, I got a DOS window that popped up and
says: "Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]
<C> Copyright 1985-2001 Microsoft Corp.

C:\Program Files\Common Files\SYSTEM\MSMAPI\1033>"

Anyone else had this problem since upgrading to SP2 for
Windows XP PRO? Not sure if I should have posted this here
since it may be a combination of issues but I do know that
it is happening in Outlook and wasn't happening in Outlook
prior to upgrading to SP2 for Windows XP Pro... If this
belongs somewhere else, kindly advise.

TIA.

Found the answer, for some reason the "doc" file type was
not correctly associated with Word.
