Right click, create new Word doc creates Word plain text doc

[Paul Dolling]

Right clicking in a folder or on desktop and choosing
create new Microsoft Word Document creates a "plain text"
Word doc instead of a "Normal" Word doc. Create new doc
from within Word is OK and file associations show Word
for Doc extension.
